Olympics Opening Ceremonies - will you watch

[msmerymac]

I'm recording it. We'll see if we watch on Friday, depending on what the people at my house want to do.

I am definitely watching. We are having people over so now I need to decide what "british" food to cook.

I was going to maybe do :
grilled sausage
garlic mashed potatoes
shephards pie potato skins
beer

Any other ideas are appreciated.

Not broadcast simultaneously. It will begin here a half hour before it ends on the east coast.

I'm going to set it to record, was going to try to have people over for an int'l themed potluck, but it looks like half my friends work tomorrow night.

ETA I'm not normally a summer olympics person. However, the last time they were on I lived in Japan, so only got to watch things like Japanese women's badmitton, so I'm kind of excited to be in Amurca for this. Even if I am in a weird time zone.

The Australian olympics was on when I was hooking up with a guy who'd been an alternate in gymnastics in the mid 90s, so that was fun

I'll be watching, but not from home. A friend is hosting a Will It Fail? opening ceremony party. Rumors of 40 Mary Poppinses and a giant Voldemort are made for mocking.
