Gymnastics: It's not like Football

Before these "limpic" games, I would not have considered myself a gymnastics fan in the slightest amount.  I am a "real sports" fan.  I like football, bruises, and dirt.  However, through no fault of my own, I have become somewhat obsessed with watching gymnastics at these games.  Maybe it is the Olympic spirit that has consumed me (see my prior post).  I am obsessed with the Olympics and gymnastics have captured my interest as much as anything else.  Who wouldn't be enthralled with all the drama and excitement this year from the crap of scoring disagreements to the clutch of great performances.  It has been exciting.  I have been more into than my wife!  (Although she is an elementary school teacher who gets up hours before me and can't afford to stay up as late).

 

For those of you who can't get enough of Nastia, Shawn, and the other gymnasts, there is actually a tour throughout the US following the games featuring these gymnasts.  This 2008 Tour of Gymnastics Champions will even be coming to Indianapolis at Conseco Fieldhouse.  You can see Nastia Luikin, Shawn Johnson, Shannon Miller, Chellsea Memmel, Indiana's Bridget Sloan, and more women.  Among the men will be Paul and Morgan Hamm, Jonathan Horton, Blaine Wilson, etc.  Many talented American gymnasts will be here!  If you are interested in seeing America's best gymnasts here in Indianapolis, call Circle City Tickets to get your tickets to the 2008 Tour of Gymnastics Champions event!
