Paris Accords 'thunderous' Welcome To 2024 Games, Crowd Go 'Gaga' Over Nadal
Air Rifle Mixed Team Qualification: Let the Games begin! Amid thunderclouds and heavy rains, the 2024 Paris Olympics got off to a stunning start as the Organising Committee (OC) made sure that the world got to see why the French capital is called 'la Ville Lumiere' -- the city of light.
For the first time in the history of the Olympic Summer Games, the Opening Ceremony didn't take place in a stadium; it was held in the heart of the city along its main artery: the Seine river.
The event started with representatives from Greece leading the athletes from nearly 200 countries in the Parade of the Nations on boats on the river.
