Lawn bowls

Isn't that a funny name?
It doesn't mean bowls set around on the lawn for some mysterious sporting purpose, but it's what you might know as bocce ball.
That's what I call it when I play, anyway.

Greens one through four were set up with their fake grass outside the stadium. And the Commonwealth volunteer was really excited to show us to our seats and tell us who was playing.

India vs. Malta, that's the match we chose.

Malta was an intense opponent, but this picture is evidence of India scoring a point.

No, India did not win this set. Maybe next time.

The freaky animated cheerers

When an athlete is successful at the games, they show a footage sequence on the big screens of Shera the CWG mascot and his cheering buddies.
It's a freaky video.
Who's idea was this?
