Ian Thorpe

Did anyone see Ian Thorpe at the Olympics? He looked amazing :) I wish he was still swimming.

[Edit] I forgot to add he was watching from the stands. They showed him on tv an he was posing for pictures with fans.

Is there a picture of this somewhere?

He watched 100 metres freestyle final this morning.

Yeah, i wish he was still swimming too! It's weird watching the swimming events without him, especially the freestyle events. It's like "Thorpe should be there. He could have won."

I was actually hoping to catch a glimpse of him somewhere, but my local tv didn't feature him.

Anyway, there are 3 pictures of him over at the following url:

Thanks so much for those. He was wearing a white shirt and posing with some fans for photos in the stands when they showed him on tv
