I'm sitting here flicking between TFT and tele. There is a Womens Football game between Germany and Sweeden and the grandstands in the stadium are nearly completely empty. This game is for the Bronze Medal as well.

Heres a screenshot:



(Now I just hope NBC dont come after me)

i remember hearing something on the raido how Greece is losing a huge amount money on this olympics. Ticket sales were horribly low, the prices for EVERYTHING within the city tripled... not to mention the fact that "most Greeks don't have an attraction to live sporting events. They'd rather watch it on TV in a bar or cafe with their friends." something like that anyway...

off topic yes harry potter i know what quidditch is.

on topic its pretty sad that none of the countries represented here had a huge following for the sport. considering that both countries are european that their hooligans could have shown up for a match
