2024 Olympics in Paris

[HighStepper]

I saw a lot of the Olympics. The athletes competing were awesome.
The opening and closing ceremonies were over the top outstanding. Best the Olympics have ever seen.

I dont know why, but I watched the least amount of Olympic coverage of my entire life.  Its strange as I usually watch a lot of it.

Maybe its having 5 grandkids all playing baseball, soccer, tennis and basketball.   If anyone drives by a kid's game in Sacramento or the surrounding area, I' probably there.   (I'm the old guy, staring at the hot moms in short shorts!)

It was cool as hell and I regret not making a bigger effort to see some events in person. 
Getting tickets is the hard part.  I plan to try harder for LA 2028.
LA is close and US citizens can get about 3-4 times as many tickets in the first lotteries as others.

Watch most of it, was so many emotional moments. races won by an eyelash. coming from behind. to blow wins. the volleyball was so intense, then Scotty won the golf. I picked Hocker to win the 1500 and he did. in the heat, and semi's he finished 3rd, wasn't tired at all. I ran track and the relays on the last day was awesome.
