There have been some unprecedented things happening in this years Olympics. Not in competition but on Twitter, and mainly with the athletes that don’t realize they are being racists. Don’t believe me? Google it. Anyway, that’s not the only thing weird happening in London this year. Apparently there are these bizarre rules even for people who attend the Olympic events. Now some of them make sense, for example No Bagpipes and or Vuvuzelas allowed in any competition (YES!) But some other ones have you wondering why you would want to attend them at all. Check out the 6 weird rules you have to follow if you are just there watching Michael Phelps lose.
#1.) You Can’t Share an Internet Connection. You’re not allowed to use mobile hotspots. And if your cell phone can put out a wi-fi signal, you’re not supposed to use that either.
#2.) You Can’t Take Pictures and Sell Them. You have to agree not to when you buy a ticket. And if you tape something and post it on YouTube, it’ll get taken down.
#3.) You Can’t Play Bagpipes. You’re also not allowed to use whistles, drums, or rattles. And unlike the World Cup in 2010, vuvuzelas aren’t allowed either.
#4.) You Can’t Write Something Negative Online When You’re Linking to the Official Website. According to the terms and conditions, you can’t say anything that’s, quote, “false, misleading, derogatory, or otherwise objectionable.”
#5.) You Can’t Pay with Your MasterCard. When you’re inside the Olympic grounds, you either have to use a Visa card or pay cash.
#6.) You Can’t Go to an Event and Hold Up a Country’s Flag if They Don’t Have Athletes Competing . The only exceptions are Scotland, Wales, and England.
