  1. I thought that they'd be cancelled because of the pandemic, but I was glad they were held in Tokyo anyway. And thanks to this article http://specialolympics2020.com/why-olympics-betting-is-so-popular.html, I even decided to start placing bets because it made the games even more entertaining to watch. I'll definitely do the same in two years.
