I have to say that I am pretty impressed with the opening ceremonies. But, I would expect nothing less of the French. The rain is just adding to the drama. I love it.“How does it feel to be the greatest guitarist in the world? I don’t know, go ask Rory Gallagher”. — Jimi HendrixComment

The opening ceremony was all over the place trying to touch on everything. France has contributed to the world. Overall, it was pretty good. The Louvre’s paintings and sculptures coming alive, the metal horse galloping down the Seine, the music and dancing, lighting the balloon cauldron. Add in the rain and it was a wild production.Comment

I really liked it. Thought using the Seine and the city as one giant stage was very unique and cool. I know the Parisians hate it, but the light show with the Eiffel Tower is so cool and the rain made it even better. Interesting to see how many non-French big athletes had a role.
Stunning visuals with the city, the rain and the balloon cauldron all with Ms Dion’s vocals. Fantastic production.I still call it The Jake.Comment
