The Official 2024 Paris Summer Olympics Thread (from July 26 - August 11) - Closing Ceremony replay at 7pm EST

In a way, I kinda wish we (Chicago) were able to get the Olympics back in 2016. We were finalists, but the first city off the list. Atlanta has hosted the Olympics but Chicago can’t? And LA has already been the host city.

We can't afford that shyt breh, the city is already in hella debt, but it would've been dope.


I wonder if all the athletes are going to check in or just the black athletes for the LA games

 

[Mané Swagincha]

Damn this really over…..goated handover ceremony tho

 

[King Static X]

This has been the best Olympics I have watched

Nah, Beijing 2008 & London 2012 are still the best, in my opinion.

Paris 2024 was (mostly) good though.

 

[Nero Christ]

Great Olympics...see yall once again in 4 years brehs & brehettes

 

[Spence]

I wonder if I could just commute to the events I want to watch by posting up in Vegas for 28

I promise leading up to the olympics, every LA gang member better be on their best behavior. They will lock their asses up to make sure nothing gives LA a black eye

LA is gonna be a war zone the next three years. So many people gonna goto prison and so many poor people gonna get booted out. And the homeless people.

 

[Liu Kang]

I think he was going to play for France in the Olympics if he hadn't gotten hurt. You're allowed a few guys over 23.. Shame.. Stupid Spain had to win

Real didn't allow it unfortunately

Nah, Beijing 2008 & London 2012 are still the best, in my opinion.

Paris 2024 was (mostly) good though.

Nobody is touching that Beijing opening drum ceremony with 10k people on the exact same beat. shyt was eternally impressive.

 

[King Static X]

Damn we gotta wait 4 more years

Well, there's the Winter Olympics in less than 2 years: February 2026 - Milano/Cortina (Italy).

Karen Bass played the long game leaving Congress to become LA Mayor

 

[jerniebert]

LA is gonna be a war zone the next three years. So many people gonna goto prison and so many poor people gonna get booted out.

Governor told everyone to clean up their homeless problem too.

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

Yeah it's LB. That beach is right off 2nd street, been there for 4th of July and a few other times.



Plus you can tell when the crowd went "Long Beeeeach". That's a custom.

@mastermind you want to apologize or hold that L?

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Real didn't allow it unfortunately

Damn... I thought it was because of the face injury

Congrats on one of the GOAT Olympics @Liu Kang

 

[Dreamchaser]

Closing ceremony was alright, I didn't like the handover to LA. No offense, but LA 2028 had no meaning to it. France felt like they had symbol behind everything. But, the opening ceremony is up there with the china opening olympics.
