Agree with the lights debacle-- there were places shifting in the last 200 meters that the lack of lighting obscured.

[@samanderson7745]

They really missed the mark with the lights at Hayward for this meet. These races are almost unwatchable, I can't imagine racing with the lights doing this. It's good to see Karissa back on form though!

[@angusatkins-trimnell2784]

Agreed. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. It's a track meet not a dance club.

[@samanderson7745]

@@angusatkins-trimnell2784 I'd be fine if they did the lights during athlete introduction, but that's it.

[@angusatkins-trimnell2784]

@@samanderson7745 Absolutely. I have no argument against the entertainment value (not my cup of tea, but that's another story). The use of the lights are obstructive of the very point of the race, which is to watch the competitors.

Video should come with an epilepsy warning. I imagine it’s hard to watch in person too.

[@louislozano1171]

@@jazandriz it's actually really cool in person!

The lights are not a good idea

[@SydneyCollin]

Agreed. It's super distracting.

[@kirkjacobson4008]

The light show was awfully distracting. Tell the officials there to stop it.

[@liberty5069]

Those overhead lights seem like a form of torture for the athletes and the fans.

[@75jdubb]

Who in the hell thought flashing the lights would be a good thing. Awful....

[@rodjohnson2632]

In addition to the stupid lights ruining watching the race, it looked like the stands were going in and out of darkness as well. I can see someone getting hurt, tripping and falling on stairs, etc. and suing. At least if that happened, it might put an end to this stupidity.

[@savell234]

that light stuff was a fiasco. makes track look really desparate.

[@barrymidkiff175]

The lighting is terrible!

[@spleen4038]

I particularly enjoyed watching the pacers in the spotlight while the rest of the field was in the dark.

[@robertspies4695]

Blinking LIGHTS ? NO, NO, NO

[@kza695]

This is terrible light/camera work. I did skip to something else.

[@waynewallace2061]

Was that Kara running 1;54 @ 800m?

[@solochristo65]

I could not watch this......Just use a strobe light at that rate : (

[@kixigvak]

Looks like they hired some Hip Hop DJ to run the meet. The lights are really stupid. At least there's no rap music.

[@kixigvak]

1500 won by the famous Chinese miler Sum Yung Duk.

[@johnwillard6198]

Come on man I think the lights are just fine

[@davidsweet1171]

Enough with the damn lights and music. This is brutal. Unwatchable
