Watching the games live!!




Indoor Volleyball and the crowd at the security check point 8 trying to watch the fencing competition.




Is a very confusing experience...they don't have anybody telling the spectators who the athletes are or what they are about to do. So half the time, it is a guessing game! My aunt gave me two tickets to fencing for Saturday morning. I had no idea how to watch fencing!! It took me 20 minutes to figure out how the competitors score points. The hardest part is trying to see which country is competing since they only spell out three letters on the scoreboard. WHAT IS "MAR"?????

Also watched indoor volleyball Saturday night at the capital stadium. WAY more exciting than fencing...

What cracks me up about the fencers is how they scream after poking their opponent, like they just accidentally murdered someone. Athletes!
