There are times…at a concert, game, or other public event…when you want to leap to your feet, raise your cupped hands, fill your chest with air, and — with your most expressive voice — make no sound yet feel good inside.

 

 

that’s true for you, you’re gonna love the Olympics.

You’ll relate to the audience, who’ll be doing that very thing.

Japan’s released its COVID guidelines, and this year won’t be a particularly uproarious affair.

As reported by Agence France-Presse, for one, alcohol is banned. So for attendees hoping to booze it up, sobering disappointment awaits.

Another thing: Due to germs, no autographs will be allowed.

And affection’s taking a back seat to safety: No hugging.

How about high fives? Per Good Morning America, those are getting slapped down.

Lastly, cheer-hungry onlookers will have to do with only the Christmas kind.

From Tokyo 2020 President Seiko Hashimoto to reporters Wednesday:

“People can feel joy in their hearts, but they can’t be loud and they have to avoid crowds.”:snip:
