Very surprised that NBC just brought up Shaun White's name given what's currently going on with him.

What's going on with him?

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Whoa is NBC delayed? I think I completely missed the Tokyo video

Just getting to the Japanese anthem.

NBC always tape delays the ceremonies (as well as many many competitions). This closing ceremony is at least one hour behind the live one.

 

[SolidSnakex]

What's going on with him?

His former drummer is currently suing him for sexual harassment.

 

[Madness]

What's going on with him?

Sued for sexual harassment and sending dick pics and stuff

 

[RandomSeed]

Well, that was fun. Going to miss having all this to watch.

 

[Altazor]

Thank you, everyone.

We might not have put on the best show in the history of the Olympics, and we may have misbehaved during some events, but we did love seeing you all come around.

These were amazingly special two weeks for all of us, that definitely helped rebuild some of the confidence we've lost over the hard last years. So I hope you guys had at least a little fun

I'll cherish these days forever.

I loved them, as I usually do with the Olympic Games - you guys didn't disappoint.

It's gonna be a long wait till Tokyo.

Same here lol

Certainly my favorite olympics.

 

[MaKTaiL]

As we say here in Brazil: Everything ends in Carnaval!

Thanks for coming everyone, hope you enjoyed this Olympic Games in Brazil just like I did. See you all in Japan!

I make this words mine.

Thank you World ;D

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

What's going on with him?

Quick Google says he is being sued for sexual harassment by a drummer?

 

[Disxo]

Mama yo quiero mamaaaaaaar

Jajjaa ok

 

[SolidSnakex]

The electronic portion of the Tokyo 2020 music sounded like it was produced by Yasutaka Nakata (Perfume, Capsule, and KPP).

Even though I left Brazil (and Rio) when I was only 6 years old, these Games felt extra special and I can't help but also feel proud.

Parabéns Brasil!

 

[victreeb3l]

That was pretty good. Hyped for Tokyo but Rio was a lot of fun too.

NBC always tape delays the ceremonies (as well as many many competitions). This closing ceremony is at least one hour behind the live one.

Ah no wonder. I wish I didnt get that Tokyo video spoiled but it was still awesome.

I loved these Olympics. Sure it may have had some problems but I think you and your country ultimately did a great job.

 

[Ganzlinger]

I was wondering if Izabel Goulart could dance samba. lol

 

[Good Job Bob]

Any links yet to Japan's bit?

 

[Quick]

Any links yet to Japan's bit?

Doesn't have the first part though.

[Y2Kev]

Well they just showed Shaun White again.

Wow, three olympics in a row in Asia. Good job IOC spreading it around!

 

[Smellycat]

That was pretty great, Tokyo!!!

 

[jmood88]

That Tokyo segment had some really good music. I'm seriously thinking about making my first visit to Japan for the 2020 Olympics.

 

[psaman17]

Beginning of Tokyo video is a School girl doing a cartwheel in skirt. They know their audience. Never change Japan.

 

[Eylos]

Alessandra Ambrosio dear god

 

[Altazor]

also, BrazilGAF - pay no heed to those who badmouth these Games and try to paint you as incompetent or the Games themselves as a big failure. I honestly think you surpassed most people's expectations. So parabéns, my friends!

 

[Kid Ying]

they not a fan of the mayor? LOL

He's actually a good mayor. On office, he made Rio a better place in lots of stuff.

But he talks too much shit, get mixed in lots of controversial shit.

 

[psaman17]

I'll watch the shit out of this.

Thanks!

 

[JesseZao]

Tokyo performance was great. Rest of the ceremony was rather dull and unpolished.

not to be a downer but the paralympics got totally fucked

the Olympics were good though. except the green pool.

 

[Disxo]

My neighbours put a great olympics, Brasil should be proud of that.

 

[Altazor]

not to be a downer but the paralympics got totally fucked

oh shit, I forgot about that

 

[SSPssp]

Alessandra Ambrosio dear god

It was Izabel Goulart, but yeah, I thought it was Ambrosio first too.

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

This samba closing segment is almost more elaborate than the rest put together.

 

[Hyllian]

So, in 2024, is LA is the best bet?

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

I'm gonna miss the Olympics so hard I don't want them to be over!

 

[Disxo]

So, in 2024, is LA is the best bet?

Madrid maybe

 

[ActStriker]

Tokyo 2020 video was hype as fuck

 

[Y2Kev]

Thomas Bach, a failing Putin Puppet, is very low energy. Sad!

 

[Pyroclastic]

The 2020 Olympics can only start like this:

"Kept you waiting, huh?"

 

[h1nch]

I enjoyed the Olympics, despite NBC's shameful production decisions.

I hope NBC loses money on Rio.

 

[Chezzymann]

Was that the smash bros theme at the very end?

 

[User 463088]

Am I the only who randomly cries when they put the cauldron out? It always gets me. Idk why

 

[NSESN]

Was that the smash bros theme at the very end?

Mario flag theme iirc

 

[Zackat]

So, in 2024, is LA is the best bet?

Probably between Paris and LA.

Madrid maybe

I don't think they are even in it anymore?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Summer_Olympics

 

[SolidSnakex]

Madrid maybe

Is Madrid even in play? Wiki shows LA, Paris, Budapest, and Rome as the four cities with Hamburg having pulled out. I don't think you can really go wrong with any of those.

 

[Brazil]

Am I the only who randomly cries when they put the cauldron out? It always gets me. Idk why

That's not random at all. And no, I always cry as well. Fifth time in a row.

 

[Y2Kev]

Wow there is nobody there.

 

[Chezzymann]

Mario flag theme iirc

Fuck lol

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

Oh man, I just realized that all the events in Tokyo are going take place in the middle of the night for us here in the Western Hemisphere.

 

[nny]

I always feel like crap when the Games end.
