RE: Is anyone attending the World Games? - Usajags - 07-08-2022 08:46 AM I’m not sure why Bootsy Collins played such a large part in the ceremonies, I can’t find any connection between him and Alabama. The fireworks and drones looked good on TV. It was almost like they didn’t know how to end the show, and that the band just broke out in Journey almost spontaneously, if so, that is probably the highlight of it all. I didn’t know if there would be a flame lighting, which there wasn’t, but it needed something like that to highlight and signify the opening ceremony was complete. RE: Is anyone attending the World Games? - C-Finder - 07-08-2022 10:18 AM The fireworks were to end the opening ceremony Bootsy Collins was the master of the ceremony , could have just got Lionel Richie to do both opening and closing ceremonies There's also live coverage of the World Games on YouTube right now RE: Is anyone attending the World Games? - hooverblazer - 07-08-2022 10:52 AM Went to the opening ceremony and thought it was pretty cool. There were some things that could have been better (ran too long and there was too much dead time between some of the sets), but overall I thought it was great. Definitely a unique experience. Highlights of the night for me was the standing ovation for Ukraine and the drone show.
