What's the gala?

I am guessing it's like the exhibition the skaters put on after olympic comps are over....?

Live streaming now...

The first of two days of Gymnastics Gala. It's full of acro, tumbling, and rhythmic from around the world interspersed with simplified routines, set to music, by the medalists.

I have never seen pommels on a beam!

After an hour, I'm out. My girls are still watching, but I need to be more productive.

Is the second gala being aired? I only see one listed on NBC. Also, why do the gymnasts have to do a gala or exhibition? I don't really see the point.

" you just finished the hardest competition of your life, your exhausted, now go out and make it look fun one more time."

I love the skating exhibitions but they only have two rounds of competitions and that is more to benefit the organizers.

The announcer said the afternoon gala would be on Brazilian tv at 3 PM

I watched a little. Laurie did beam and Madison did floor.
