Paris Olympics 2024 #5

[kev1974]

I’d always wanted to go to one too, I regret not going to London but I was a little younger Realised Paris would be a lot easier to get to than LA but after going this year, I am really really tempted to make LA 2028 come true!

I dread to think what LA2028 tickets will cost.

Probably going to be as easy to get as Superbowl tickets

Has Macron not brought his weird wife tonight?

Where are we watching the closing ceremony - here or on the opening ceremony thread?

That is the only thing that’s potentially putting me off but anything could happen in the next few years

There better not be any naked smurfs tonight Paris, or there'll be trouble

aw if only the weather had been like this for the opening ceremony 🥲

 

[KeriRhys]

The opening really was bonkers wasn't it!!

 

[londongirl2001]

I feel like they edited out some of the heavier rain in that footage from the opening ceremony haha

The weather was absolutely horrible that night and the first full day but honestly the atmosphere throughout Paris fully made up for it

 

[thegirlscout]

Where abouts in Paris are they singing, where the balloon is?

It's in the Jardin des Tuileries, just next to Le Louvre

I also can’t remember the dancing builders on Notre Dame

Hoping they're going to fly the balloon over to Stade de France

Yeah the weather in Paris was amazing (apart from
that first Saturday), it was almost too hot at times. And the atmosphere was the best.
God now I really am sad that it’s all over already

Léon! 🫶🫶

 

[Cupcakery]

Do we think that horse will be wheeled out to ride back down the Seine?

 

[StrawberryBanana90]

Sounds silly but I really do feel like crying that it’s over! It’s been the most consistent thing in my life for the past 2 weeks haha
I’m glad the Paralympics are soon to give me more of that fix

 

[KeriRhys]

Hoping they're going to fly the balloon over to Stade de France

It'll go in a boat...
