I still can't believe that's an Olympic sport. 
What next? Frisbee?

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

I was at the olympic park yesterday. The whole experience was brilliant - the best organised event I've ever been to.Originally posted by CJ View Post
Arrived at 8am and it was quite busy but when the 80,000 went into the stadium and the other thousands into the hockey, basketball ,cycling etc it felt empty. Takes about 15/20 minutes to walk from one end to the other but loads to see and do. Watched Chris Evans interviewing Greg Rutherford (long jump gold) and the Louis Smith/Max Whitlock (gymnasts).
We had tickets for the men's handball at 2.30pm and although it wasn't my first choice - it was brilliant - very physical, shirt tugging, elbows - John Terry would be a natural. The atmosphere was superb. Came out at 5.40pm and watched Kenny win cycling gold on the big screen, then some of the evening athletics.
Lots of olympic tat for sale - not my cup of tea. Food and drink not too expensive - what you would expect - but £4.30 for a bottle of Beer was a taking the piss.
Would have loved to have got into the olympic stadium but amazing just to be outside.

also we have done dublin etc so £4.50 for a beer isnt unkown.

Only crap bit of the day was when I took my seat for the handball and found that this was my view of the court - a bloody crash barrier.
On speaking to one of the stewards - their first response was that I had been the first to complain about that seat since the start of the games - maybe for some who aren't keen on handball it was the best view
Luckily, no-one took up the seats in front which was the front row on the balcony so no harm done. But, I can't believe they put a seat in that position.
