I'm watching the games and enjoying them, and I'm glad the stands are empty and everybody is just watching at home. None of the champions are any less emotional or any less driven to win due to not having a crowd. That's several tens of thousands of wasteful luxury jet rides that never happened, road and mass transit overcrowding that never happened, and rude drunk tourists that never showed up. They should do it this way forever IMO (they won't)

Also while I'm asking for ponies, the games should only be awarded to very large cities that already have the appropriate facilities (yes that includes LA, just be glad you're not Brisbane lol). Of course crooked construction kickbacks are a big part of the process, but good things happening without venal wastefulness is fun to fantasize about
