Mitch Larkin... what a star. Kyle Chalmers as well. You look at the size of him, and it is hard to believe he's only 19.

It sure has. And I for one wish my Cameroon friends all the happiness that this great land will offer them. I respect the hustle and welcome them to our fine land.

Highlight of the night:

Pole vaulter fails badly

Well his pole was quite soft there, he really needs to get a hard pole in his hands

*Uncomfortable silence*
