Jon the VGNerd 887 August 13, 2012 Share August 13, 2012 Same here, though I loved the closing ceremony in my honest opinion. I think the closing ceremony felt touching as I almost shed a tear in my eye (no, I'm not gonna lie), even though the opening ceremony was great.

Nas 2,873 August 13, 2012 Author Share August 13, 2012 (edited) The flames are extinguished, the nations separate once again for another hiatus, lead by a very triumphant ending ceremony. The Summer Games of the XXX Olympiad are officially concluded. Until next time these nations meet in competition, we will bid farewell, until 2 years in Russia... ...and in 4 years in Brazil!

null1 606 August 13, 2012 Share August 13, 2012 To be honest, I'm a little concerned about Rio, with the crime there and all. And the infrastructure to support the large influx of athletes, trainers, tourists, and more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the infrastructure to support the large influx of athletes, trainers, tourists, and more. Well, they will be the host for the World Cup in two years so they'll probably have everything sorted out by than. It's not like Brazil doesn't have the means to get their act together in that time span. "Never give no manipulative bitch the benefit of the doubt" - Compa's grandpa...

FordFan99 9 August 13, 2012 Share August 13, 2012 I thought the closing ceremony was pretty cool. I didn't watch the Bejing ceremony so I don't have anything to compare it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardust 641 July 21, 2020 Share July 21, 2020 (edited) This is old stuff haha but I think the UK actually benefited from the new stadiums and development from the olympics. Some of the stadiums are still in use and there have been many cool and fairly big events held there. The development of westfield shopping centre there has also been a good one. I enjoyed watching a few events horses in the park, table tennis and some athelete type stuff. Also I remember the ds app where you could collect sonic and mario trading cards. The ceremony was so cool, I liked the James bond stuff, the internet part and the dr who thing. The history thing with the industrial was weird tho but cool. As for the tokyo olympics I feel so sad it might be cancelled Japanese people have been looking forward to and planning this for a long time.

Tom Gallagher 33,595 July 21, 2020 Share July 21, 2020 Even as a non-sports person, I still love to rewatch the opening and closing ceremonies. They were so iconic and were full of so many legends. The bit with John Lennon and Freddie Mercury's vocal improv were my favourites. Signature made by the amazing @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
