David Beckham was one of the participants in the Closing Ceremonies of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, as they passed the Olympic Torch over to London, who will host the 2012 games. David’s participation was brief and simple–he was escorted by a child onto the field and kicked a soccer ball into the stadium! The crowd went insane as everyone scrambled to get the ball for themselves. It looks like David is a superstar in China too!
According to David’s blog, he was honored to participate in the closing ceremonies. It was amazing to watch on television–I can’t even imagine how awe-inspiring it must have been to be there in person!
