Would love to see just one main stadium event.
What will you want to see?

 

[Hampster Gull]

Now live in London and intend to take two weeks off and see as much as possible

Who gives a shit?

85% of the Country I'd expect

Egg and Spoon race most of the athletes put in more effort training in a day that footballers do in a month

Was fortunate enough to go to Athens and see 7 of the 9 gold medals that GB and NI won, missing out on the Sailing.

Ben Ainslie would be well worth watching to see if he can make it 4 golds - with him, Britannia will in all likelihood rule the waves. But for sheer excitement, the velodrome is where it's at.

Who gives a shit? Westdene School is having its sports day in July and it's only 200 yards from my house. I think I'll go to that instead, as it'll be just as exciting.

bit peadee though init

Sir Phil The Power Taylor?

Shall we just bounce the old thread, TCB?

The cost is going to be prohibitive for some events, but I am sure for most of us it will be a once in a lifetime experience. Some events will be free such as Road cycling and the Marathon.
The rowing will be a big event

Would a country build a stadium for me to perform my utterly pointless 'talent'? No. Working hard at something does not mean it's worthwhile.

19,802 posts and the pennies dropped

Watching? Surely sailing is not a very viewable sport (without binoculars) at the race, far better to watch on TV?

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

We could! I've no time for darts but Phil Taylor is ten times the sportsman any of these amateurs will ever be.

Wow

Just, wow

 

[Djmiles]

Wow

Just, wow

Sums it up pretty well.

 

[Eggmundo]

I've never really thought of a darts player as an athlete....

 

[KneeOn]

TCB?

I want to see Hockey, and maybe a main stadium event.

Work are doing this thing though that if I do well for a month, i'll be put on helping at the Olympics so i'm going to hedge my bets as it were and only buy a hockey ticket, and see if i can't get to be an olympic helper.

In Weymouth, they are running big screens with commentary from ex Olympian sailors...I know cos I am organising something similar across London!

I recommend piling down it will be rocking!

 

[bristolseagull]

where's the BMX?

I used to ride so would love to see this...
