Summer Olympics 2024 France

[650lb Sumo]

The Games actually started today, two days before the 'Opening Ceremony'.



The Closing Ceremony takes place on Sunday the 11th of August, which is indeed the last day of competition.

These games, the 33rd, are the first to feature Breakdancing, and are estimated to cost €9 billion.

The USA will presumably win, although China has a sporting chance. It will be interesting to see how high France can finish!

Russian and Belarussian athletes can compete as 'neutrals', as long as they are not associated with the war effort of their countries or perceived to be supportive of it morally.

USA will dominate these can countries like we always do.

I would like to echo this request

Been reading some interesting things regarding how unorganized and ill-prepared France has been for the games so far. River still teaming with e.coli, Olympic Village with no AC and beds made of cardboard, and already running out of chicken in the food courts.

In other words, the shit show should be awesome if you're not into the actual sports on display.

For all that work... I hope France wins a gold medal.
