Olympics Opening Ceremony

[newb]

Watching it now. Its pretty fuckin sad. Up until now, Ive only looked in for a min or two as my parents watched. This year, for some reason, I really wanted to watch the whole thing. I am very sad that I've been looking forward to this.

facebook told me it was lame, so i didn't bother to tune in.

needs more curling.

Just about done watching it. The "story line" had some okay parts but some of it was just stupid and way to long.

Was it just me or were the stands empty. It looked like a pep rally at a high school. Great Britain does not have their shit together.

I didn't watch very much. It was lame so I watched Half Baked.

i didn't watch it so i have no idea

but i heard tickets were like 1500-2000 pounds a pop. At that price, i wouldn't go either.

i guess there is some big controversy regarding empty seats
apparently all the good seats were reserved for sponsors, families, officials, etc
i think most of the sponsor seats are probably the ones going empty
a lot of tickets were given away as prizes for drawings and promotions and such shit

2000 pounds??? What the fuck are they made out of, lead?

 

[Briansol]
