Atlanta-The national ratings for the London Olympics have been very strong.

Tuesday night had the highest household rating for any night of the summer games since Atlanta 16 years ago.

This we know, wherever you go around town and there is a television you can see men, women and children gathered  watching the games on TV.

Tonight inside Atlanta's Ghion Cultural Hall all eyes were focused on the games.

The large screen television was in the middle of a festive room with Ethiopian Art and guideposts to remind these ex-patriots of their landlocked homeland located in the horn of Africa.

As Ethiopian sports fans will tell you, their country plays great soccer and has won many olympic medals in track and field most notably long distance running.
