The air is so bad that the Chinese govt. is asking people to drive more because the air filters in their cars actually clean the air.

 Two weeks ago it was smoke up here from NC wildfires! SW or WSW winds will do it, as well as pump up muggy air!

I would refuse to participate with such poor quality air, for fear of lung damage.
There better be MASSIVE air purifiers in the stadium... ~Nate
