The first to enter the arena, at 6 p.m. were 150 standard-bearers and 800 athletes in gymnastic outfits. They formed a "Sun" composition in the centre of the field. Columns of youths and girls in national costumes of the 15 republics of the Soviet Union ran towards it from all sides, forming sunrays. Formations of thousands of participants in the Friendship of the Peoples dance suite created a series of brightly-coloured pictures on the field.(Extracted from The Official Report Games of the XXII Olympiad - Volume 2: Organization)

@TheOmega1974 No es un sueño, está en nuestras manos llevarlo a la realidad. Es cuestión de ser fuertes y luchar por nuestros ideales, un sueño nunca muere si se lucha por él.

@TheOmega1974 Não sei a tua idade mas em 1980 vi que uma grande afronta foi o boicote americano só por que a URSS invadiu o Afganistão( o que os EUA fizeram 4 anos depois, invadindo a ilha de Granada e o que estão fazendo hoje no Aganistão e Iraque??). depois que a URSS fez em 1980 o restoé imitação em abertura de jogos olímpicos.Um abraço e parabéns pelo bom gosto
