You Guys Totally Missed The Beijing Olympics' Opening Ceremony Because You Were Asleep

It's finally here ladies and gents. The Olympic ceremony, the one that was so hush-hush, kicked off the 2008 Beijing Olympics some time during the night when we were fighting off the effects of cheap wine and late night Scotch. You can see the replay tonight on NBC around 7:30 EST and it's scheduled to last a mind-numbing four hours. So, we thought we'd help all of you by supplying a few photos from the event so you're at least left confident a bathroom break and/or Tecate run won't make you miss the dudes roaming around the stadium floor with boxes. No really. Artists are draped in white boxes that move throughout the stadium floor. It's amazing. Check out the flicks after the jump. Opening Ceremony Coverage [Yahoo] Images [AP]
