I really like to watch Basketball. Germany was for a longer time not in the top group of nations. Since Dirkules we have there something but actually the team is so strong. I did enjoy watching olympic Basketball this year.

Ice Hockey isn't even a sport I watch, actually. Usually my favorite sport to watch is soccer, though, which I used to play. This year it was fun to watch the newer sports like climbing and skateboard, though.

AT-AT likes to watch sports like shooting, archery, etc. He is amazed anybody that can actually hit the target. He wishes his shooting was as accurate as these athletes.

Handball has always been a fun sport to watch although Volleyball, Field Hockey and Swimming are always pretty hype to watch too.
Biggest surprise for me has been Archery and Shooting, has been pretty tense.

I'm sorry but the break dancing has produced enough memes to last the internet for the rest of the year and then some. That is my favorite now for sure, they should have awards for the top 3 and bottom 3!

Atticus usually watches whatever he can when the Olympics come around but this year he couldn't miss gymnastics and Simone Biles' potential farewell tour. Track and field was particularly action packed this time around and of course basketball.

Mänty would mostly be enjoying some fast paced sports, with like Ski Cross or BMX racing in olympics. Also they enjoy following few types of motorsports like WRC and F1.

I watch a lot of sports during the olympics. It was awsome! Volta also loves to watch new sports at the Olympics. Especially Breaking, but we don’t talk about the poor performance of RayGun from Australia. What a shame! Best sports I watched: Swimming, Hammer throw, Pole Vault, and USA sucking at the 4x100m men race.

Boots enjoys watching the gymnastics events. The amount of discipline, balance and speed required to perform their incredible routines is absolutely mind boggling. They can get so much power from a leap and it's always incredible to witness.

The best Olympic sport is Men’s Halfpipe in the Winter Olympics. Crazy amount of skill and talent needed to compete at the highest level, plus very astheticsy pleasing

“I thought I was a goalie, but STA told me forget being a goalie they make nothing, and no one cares about them.  Guess what I was a center all along and I had no idea. Now I am the toast of the town, and I am getting offers from all the GMs and Scouts.”

Skateboarding looked pretty great, though the synchronized swimming was also incredible to watch! Of course, there was the memes about the Turkish guy in the shooting event, and the absolutely disastrous Australian breakdancing event, too. That one fellow who taught himself how to shoot a bow and arrow was a wonderful story, too, even if he wasn’t all that good at it ♥️

I always enjoy watching the land hockey. Very peculiar sport. I also like BMX, but I didn't get to see any this time around. Handball is also very entertaining and I do enjoy the running contests. Next up is the paralympics. Ballsports for the blind is the thing I am going to try watch on the telly this year.
