Nike Sportswear Beijing 2008 - Day 1 Recap

It’s been a long day. The lowlight included a visit to the grossest toilet known to man which was quickly redeemed by the ability to meet and converse with tons of influential creatives in a more then memorable setting created by Nike. The day included an exhibition for Nike’s world of innovation as 100 different pieces of Nike history were highlighted, a look into Beijing’s fledging art community, the unveiling of China’s uniforms for the Olympics and an in-depth foray into Nike Sportswear. However, we have been gorging ourselves on delicious room service whilst locked in our rooms brogging and when we do get out its always good to catch up with people you really only ever talk to on email/instant messenger. One last thing to take care of tomorrow…

Oh yeh, we walked in only to be immediately met with some guy just squatting and deucing with the door open.
