Now, panel, what will be the big surprise at the Olympics opening ceremony? Peter Grosz.

PETER GROSZ: They will unveil the brand-new Olympic mascot Crumbly, the unfinished stadium.

(LAUGHTER)

SAGAL: Amy Dickinson.

AMY DICKINSON: OK, picture this. The music comes up - da da da da da da da - it's "The Girl From Ipanema" - and these gorgeous, bikini-clad Brazilian women start to march around the track. But wait - it's really the Russian men's delegation...

(LAUGHTER)

DICKINSON: ...trying to sneak their way past the IOC Committee.

(LAUGHTER)

SAGAL: And Adam Burke.

ADAM BURKE: The big surprise at the opening ceremony will be that there will be an opening ceremony.

DICKINSON: Aww.

(APPLAUSE)

BILL KURTIS: Well, depending on what happens, we'll ask you about it right here on WAIT WAIT... DON'T TELL ME.
