6 B people on the earth. It's starting 6:35 Pm in the UK.

But that might explain why the Greeks are finding it hard to sell

Lol,

They didn't sell many tickets because most of the world didn't believe they
would have finished building before the Olympics started.

I know I never, but they have and done a good job as well.

I noticed that in the opening ceremony they even paid homage to the
intellectual contributions of the ancient Greek mathematicians.

It was a tribute to knowledge, rare to be seen on the field of jocks!
