Paris 2024 Olympics Thread - 11th August (pg 430)

Im sure the opening ceremony will be spectacular and everything, but the idea of closing down half of Paris for a week is just silly. Hold it at the stadium like every other olympic games.
What stadium are the games in anyway, have they had to build one like we did?
 
Watching my first bit of the Olympics, Rugby Sevens, didn't fancy Ukraine v Iraq in the football. As an event I think the Olympics trumps all sporting events.

It's the Stade de France for the athletics.
 
Handball is dumb, way too many subjective calls, people call footballers mard, I think this is the most mard sport. Slovenia v Denmark has had 6 people suspended (2min sin bin) for fuck all.
