The field volunteers and I sat on the floor of the dome by gate A during opening ceremony on Thursday, and the paper airplanes were raining down on us constantly throughout the ceremony. At best, it's annoying to manage and clean off of the floor, and in a number of instances (including my wife) volunteers were hit with planes. You may think they are "just paper" but falling paper, particularly if they have had a trajectory, hurt when they hit you.

After the ceremony, we have to stick around to clean it all up instead of going out to enjoy the city.

From the bottom of my heart, please stop.
