floraneg Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Well, I've been in London for a week now and attended the opening ceremonies earlier this evening. I was wondering how it looked on TV back in the States. It was an exhilarating experience, but in my opinion it was no where near what the Beijing ceremonies were. Staying another week then heading home to wash some Porsches. Go USA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PirateGoat Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I LOVE:banana: the Olympics but I never watch the opening/ closing shows(ceremonies) I have no interest in the show boating. GO USA:patriot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveVY Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 My Bride and I were watching the opening ceremony... she has gone to bed, she said it was a "better use of her time". Opening ceremony isn't captivating IMO. Recording it to watch the torch lighting portion tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Enjoy your trip George! I am with the others, the opening ceremonies was mildly entertaining. Have a couple of Flake bars in my honor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3PedalMINI Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 i cant watch the summer olympics, its pretty painful to watch IMHO. I get excited for the winter olympics, love watching the bob sleds,skiing/snowboarding. i feel like the summer olympics could be cool if they kept to core sports instead of offering things like ribbons and horse dancing etc? none the less i tried to watch the opening ceremonies and got bored pretty quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBlack151 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Hey Dave! Long time no posts. I missed the opening ceremony. Instead I went and saw Dark Knight Rises. I am looking forward to a lot of the events though. My friend is obsessed with sports and watches as much as he can of anything that relates to competition. So when the Olympics start he DVR's almost everything on his 3 TV's in his house. Then he stays up all hours of the night and all day to watch each event. I remember the last Olympics I stopped by his house late one night and he was getting excited to watch cycling at 3am. I think I actually like his craziness to watch everything most of all. He keeps me updated on everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Just to add to my story above about my friend. I just stopped by his house to say hello and as I pulled up I can hear screaming/cheering going on from the screen door. I walk in and he's going nuts over some intense match of women's badminton going on in the olympics. Told you this guy goes nuts over sports!!!
