Same thing as in Beijing, all tickets gone and yet thousands of empty chairs in a lot of events.
As clearly seen on TV, on photos and reported in the media. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/gallery/2012/jul/31/london-2012-olympics-venues-empty-in-pictures

We're in the pipe, 5 by 5
aha, true colours and that bitterness comes out again. Both days I went (handball, hockey, cycling) everywhere was packed and atmosphere going up there on the train, interacting with all the volunteers and the crowds, painting my gf's face while we sat in the Olympic park, brilliant. One of the most memorable days of my life. But maybe that didn't come across well on Swedish tv...
edit - and i've enjoyed this show this evening, no superiority here

They don’t use live doves since they all got fried when they released them in South Korea's stadium and they landed on the Olympic flame contraption just as they lit it!
When I lived in Canada it was said the nation was supposed to be a mix of English diplomacy, French cuisine and American know how.
Instead it is a mix of American diplomacy, English cuisine and French know how.

Yup. Resulting in many events having massive gaps in the stand.

How many of those athletes do you think have secretly gone behind that bridge and thrown up through sea sickness

They should release chickens this time.
All I managed to get in the ballot (which was massively oversubscribed) was some hockey….and that was a couple of lower-ranked non-medal games. It was rammed. The whole complex was rammed. Several mates were volunteers….it was the same throughout the games.
Here are some eerily quiet clips

I thought it was a crossbreed of a horses body and giraffes neck and head.
Even the horse has an expression of “WTF was that?”
