National Stadium's Glorious Olympic Hangover Makeover

After soaking up the sparkle of the Olympics, National Stadium decided to shrug off its glitter hangover for the World Athletics Championships—a so-called 'big do-over.' Spoiler: fans expected the VIP treatment but got the stadium equivalent of reheated pizza. With zero new mascots or fancy robots, the fan experience hinged on nostalgia and a questionable lighting upgrade, because nothing screams 'top-tier event' like yesterday’s tech and last decade’s cheer. If the Olympics were an all-you-can-eat buffet, the World Athletics Championships served leftovers wrapped in a slightly fresher wrapper, proving once again that big events are like us—terrible at getting their act together twice.
