Like everything, I got in artistic debate over the look of the tickets yesterday with people in my Going To Tokyo 2020 group (which is now up to 400!).

 

I love the simplistic design of the tickets, but many didn’t. Most people wanted anime, or rising sun, or other stuff that I just find overtly stereotypical and not pertaining to the Olympics.

Personally, I like the tickets. It is simple and colorful with the pictograms. I like the venues on the tickets as well.

People also didn’t like that they weren’t shinny like the ones in Rio and Pyeongchang. Olympic ticket design is always fun. As we always conclude around here, some will like, some won’t, and many don’t care either way. :p

Gracenote predictions are not to be taken seriously :p 

 

Just like looking at previous Olympics and drawing a line or something to predict a nation's medals is utterly worthless :d

That's just weird, since right now I am willing to predict two Danish medals in dressage alone. :p

Wouldn't mind that :p 

I see about 30-35 possible medals in total. About medals in 1/3 are usually a decent way to look at it, which would mean 10-12. Lower than that would mean that things won't quite go our way.

    • Despite total domination by the Norwegian men (and yes, it's exhausting and boring), the accomplishments this weekend of Emil Iversen and Einar Hedegart are worth highlighting, despite them being Norwegian.    Iversen was dropped by the Norwegian national team after the opener in Beitostølen 2 weeks ago and was not taken to Ruka. Instead, he won both the 10k and 20k Interval Classic starts in Gålå in the Norwegian Cup last week, which granted him a spot on the start line in Trondheim. He took full advantage of that opportunity and finished on the podium in the skiathlon, and finished just off the podium in today's 10k Interval Freestyle. This definitely puts his name in serious contention for a spot on the Olympic team, which looked incredibly doubtful just a few days ago.    Einar Hedegart, the 24-year-old biathlete who decided to challenge the stereotype that biathletes are inferior skiers to their cross-country counterparts, just won the 10k Interval Start against all of Norway's best in a de facto Olympic trial.    Yes, it's exhausting seeing nothing but Norwegian flags on the men's side, but there can be excitement just beneath the surface at times.
