Here are some of the fascinating things about the first official day of the Games.
Inspiring moment: It was awesome to see the group of refugee athletes getting a chance to march in the parade of nations. Actress and UNICEF Goodwill ambassador Mia Farrow writes that fans can show their support for the team by educating themselves on the plights of refugees.
Ready to bolt: This is probably it for American sprinter Justin Gatlin -- his last chance to take down the fastest man in the world, Usain Bolt. Gatlin says he isn't concerning himself with whether he can stop the Jamaican star from becoming the first man to win three sprint golds in three consecutive Games.
'This is my third Olympics, so I'm bringing the fun, carefree Justin Gatlin from 2004 and the 'honored to be here' Justin Gatlin from 2012,' he told CNN.
Karaoke kings: Late night show host James Corden has made singing in the car go from silly to cool. U.S. swimmers managed to make their own 'Carpool Karaoke' a little of both.
Not all good news: A Moroccan boxer is denying any wrongdoing after he was arrested Friday on on allegations of trying to rape two Brazilian maids at the Olympic Village. Hassan Saada, 22, is being questioned by authorities and hasn't been charged. His lawyer is trying to get him out of detention in time for his scheduled fight Saturday.
