Are the stands empty at the olympics?
We watched a few minutes of the Olympic opening ceremony. Are the stands empty or is it an optical illusion?

It is cold there, so it may be a little sparsely populated in the stands.

The LED lights in the seating area were between the occupants. The place was full. Best Opening Ceremony I have seen. Let the Games begin!

The empty seats are for the athletes after they make their entrance into the stadium. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don't think I could watch the figure skating competition even if Mike Ditka was doing the color commentary.

Sure are a lot of repeat broadcasts on NBC. I hope this gets better as the days go on but I’m not optimistic.

NBC only shows the major competition events....they might mention results from other events, but due to thier agenda, absolutely boycott any shooting events, or anything elderly Americans won't watch.

NBC is tough to watch.
I don't have TV, but I did like watching the various forms of skate races. An amazing amount of human energy on display in those. |
