Al Gershwin	Stade de France proved to be adaptable and versatile - much more than Wembley, or the London 2012 Olympic stadium. Track/field sports, football/rugby - are all easily accommodated, quickly. The lighting/ fireworks display was magical. Paris OLYMPICS opened so many boxes! Changed the traditions/use of historic venues - instead of buildings5⁵. Smiling then at themselves...and now. Reminding Hollywood of the bar. Even Tom Cruise won't get over that...
hedda	Indeed they were so clever using their assets. The got a $Billion worth of publicity for Paris which will be hard to beat.
Al Gershwin	Magnificent, groundbreaking, innovative etc., etc..... news.sky.com/story/paris-olympics-captiv...l-conflicts-13195809
Al Gershwin	After a bold opening ceremony - the Olympics has been extremely good and unique. May well be a very rare Olympics to make a profit, or break even. Simply by using the river and historic landmarkks - all existing Parisien sites. Other hosts weren't so financially astute (Rio/Athens/Sydney/London) - building new facilities, at enormous cost.
