Olympic Games - Did you watch the closing ceremony?

Post by Diabolique »

I did and i wasn't too impressed as I was with the opening ceremony. That one was totally amazing.

Did you watch the closing ceremony? How did you like it?

I thought it went on forever. It was good, but I agree it wasn't as good as the opening ceremony. It'll be a tough thing to beat for London, that's for sure.

I think I usually prefer the winter version to the summer version, too, but watching Michael Phelps stompinate the entire world was pretty freakin' awesome. :evil:

I'd say it's worth it getting on the internets and finding a video of the opening ceremony, at least. It was pretty impressive. :nod:

Meh.

1: It's chinese.

2: It's the summer Olympics.

3: The summer Olympics aren't worth the wasted bandwidth to find a video and watch it.

He's only reason why I watched the Olympics at all. Gotta support a fellow Baltimorian. :thumb:

No, I didn't watch either ceremony.

So nobody here watched it to at least see the gymnasts bite it? That's the summer equivalent to ice skaters falling on their butts.

No, I watched the US gymnasts because they were pretty. That is all.

I watched it, but I have to agree... the opening was 10-times better. :D

I really liked the Olympics this year. :) There was a lot of history made.
