The rings are cool

[VanDeKoik]

LOL! Looks like it.

I'm surprised there hasn't been any reference to Italian history or culture during this whole ceremony.

[John W]

It does.

[Miss Marple]

This Olympic Rings thing is very spectacular!

[Howlin]

That was great!

[Txsleuth]

YOU...mean mommie?? I bet you have to act!!!

Aren't your kids glued to the set watching this??

I can remember being so excited about the Olympics when I was little.

[TC Rider]

How bad would the libs be bleating if the US was hosting and made such use of the national colors?

[filbert]

Weird stuff over (probably), now Parade of the Athletes . . .

[retrokitten]

That was cool.

[silent_jonny]

Greece first--playing Disco as they enter.

[Jrabbit]

I have to watch this....tradition

But my beloved Mavericks and Stars are playing tonight...so many sports, so little time!

[Howlin]

Much.

Oh listen to this song!

Good Times! (From Night Shift!)

[VanDeKoik]

OMG! they are not playing what I think they are playing in the background!!!!!!

[spectre]

The best I've ever seen...fantastic.

Didnt see any PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) no safety belts, lanyards etc.

Hope no one gets killed doing this.

Does Italy have something like OSHA?

[John W]

Anyone who complained Bob was too quiet before-happy now?

[retrokitten]

Oh no. There is more weird stuff to come.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Boogy Man!

[silent_jonny]

Now it's KC and the Sunshine Band :)

[filbert]

Oh, Lord, it's all Disco, all the time!

KC and the Sunshine Band . . .
