When I said that I expected the American athletes and flag to be booed at the Olympics, that was based on the assumption that Greek people would actually go to the Games. Well, that was wrong. At a lot of the venues, the empty seats far out-number the full ones. And, those events that do have half-decent crowds, most of the audience seems to be visitors, not Greeks.
Having said that, there was no booing of the American flag or team at the Opening Ceremony, so maybe I underestimated the Greek people.
