Oh snap one of the little man missed its mark!

Wonder when those vest will start changing colors...

 

[llecount]

I doubt it. Those were large enough to have motors embedded. Ohh.. did any anyone see the red dotted person in the bottom right miss their mark for the expanded flag and have to backtrack?

LOL yep!

BTW, talk about cost overruns! I hadn't realized this 40,000 seat stadium is being used solely for the opening and closing ceremonies! :shock:

I also heard this morning that a stray dog wanders into the opening ceremony, briefly disrupting it. Curious to see if that makes it to NBC.

 

[lighttechy]

The projections are certainly second to none.

 

[wolfman005]

So where are the Sharpies at?

 

[dvsDave]

What is up with the outfit of the girls holding the country name signs? That's an insane headset... thing.

 

[wolfman005]

Hunger Game wannabes...

 

[dvsDave]

Did Bob Costas just say "Flash-Cubes"?

 

[rsmentele]

I thought the same thing

 

[lighttechy]

Yes....yes he did...

 

[wolfman005]

Why would the arena temp be 50*? I assume they meant 50*F?

 

[dvsDave]

Just saw an iPhone from the Belgium delegation! Perhaps Samsung didn't actually ask athletes to cover up their iPhone logos

 

[HiThere]

you cant use Celsius on u.s. tv it will confuse the populace

 

[wolfman005]

They translated the Russian...

 

[dvsDave]

Apparently the ceremony is split between a small opening segment, then the parade of nations, then the rest of the performance.

 

[wolfman005]

Not sure if it lets you stream, but in Facebook a few of my friends are "Watching the Olympics on GetGlue"

 

[rsmentele]

American Olympians get paid if they win a metal?! What!! I better start training..

 

[wolfman005]

Can someone explain the music?
