I heard on the radio today that if you want to take a baby to the Olympics you will need to buy a ticket for him or her. I thought I heard wrong but no. Can you Adam and Eve this. What a cheek!
I think this is wrong: a child, (babe-in-arms) will not be able to participate in crowd participation. Personally I think it would be wrong to take a baby to any sport occasion, the trouble it could cause is obvious to all. But each to their own choice and there’s no way I would advocate stopping people from doing what they like. Freedom of choice is one of those things that are being eroded by people with money and power. Do I need to explain more?
I feel the idea behind this is that the Olympic bods don’t want babies there but don’t want to sound big brotherish. They want to stop people from buying tickets (if there are any to buy) for their offspring’s.
‘We don’t want any kids there but how do we say this without banning them’
I find it hard to think of any where that doesn’t allow babies in for free. Trains, Buses, Museums are some that I can think off that don’t charge for babies. I bet you can think of lots of organisations that allow young-uns in for free. We went to Centre Parks and they didn’t charge for my little grandson who was 2 at the time, but they certainly charged for everything else.
I feel that we should boycott the Olympics for the misery people that run and came up with this idea. I know it will cost a lot to stage them but with some of the top American sponsors McDonalds, Coca Cola to name two, piling their monies into it. Plus all the monies that we ordinary folk have given in the way of lotto payments, and taxes; can you imagine what extras they will be charging at the arenas once you manage to get there. That after all the travelling the parking fees including congestion charges, walking, train travel which ever way you go. Some how I don’t think being there going to be free. Want a flag to wave that’s £10 thanks, want a brochure, that’s another £10. Can of coke. £2, Hot dog £5. You know what I mean. I think those price are a bit conservative but there you go.
USA Corporation owns the games
Don’t sell your tickets back to them as these may be the only way babies will be able to get them: or rather sold to the parents.
Watch the Olympics on the tele if you so want to and see all those empty stands.
Don’t get mugged by the Olympic team.
