Paris 2024 Olympics

Kinda sad it's almost over.

Despite some and some in the media talking smack, it's been a stunning two weeks.

The City has been immaculate, the event management faultless, and after Tokyo the full stadiums were a joy to see.

Vive la France, these Games were gold.

Now I have some series to catch up on.
 
Just the closing ceremony to go for me.

Overall it was a great Olympics. Great opening despite the drag show, great sports, super impressive crowds, no Palestine or climate protests/interruptions, no load shedding, and SA walks away with 6 medals!

Double our medal haul from Tokyo (which I'll admit, was terrible) -still, nice improvement.

3rd best result for SA in my lifetime. Equal with Athens 2004 and only Rio 2016 and London 2012 were better.

One day we'll get more than 10 medals lol.
 
Each channel showing the closing ceremony has something different on though. Delay between them all.

I'm watching on 203. They're currently doing the 16 day recap which is part of the closing ceremony.
 
I see they learnt literally nothing from the opening ceremony by reducing unnecessarily long and drawn out scenes.
 
A lot of athletes here wearing their bronze medals and they still look brand new and shiny. Wasn't there a post in here saying they deteriorate quickly or something?
