Paris 2024

Thank God it's over. I felt disgusted several times too often to just sit there neutral and disinterested.

The disgusting opening "ceremony" already emphasized the accent of these games right from the start. The following two weeks kept that promise.

On the positive, the ballon on fire was and is a nice idea.

I read financially the games were ruinous for the tourism business in Paris. Hopes and expectations that were had before, apparently have not been met.

My verdict is: thumbs down. (And No, the Germans' worst-ever performance has not even anything to do with it).
