Good evening ladies and gentlemen of Panem. My name is Caesar Flickerman, and I'll be your host for this, the 74th edition of the Hunger Games!!!! Let go live to the Arena, where the 24 tributes are being raised into their starting positions around the Cornucopia.



60 seconds...


30 seconds...


GONG!!!!!!!


And with that, the games have officially begun! The tributes quickly make their way towards the Cornucopia and start retrieving supplies. Wait, what is going on here? The tributes appear to have formed an initial truce or understanding, as there are no attacks going on! This is incredible. Even in this 74th edition, new things happen every year. Each of the tributes appears to have grabbed a backpack and made their way for cover. We'll make sure to check back if any exciting action occurs.

May the odds be ever in your favor!

With this, the game is now open. Day 1 will last for ~24 hours, and will end on Thursday at 10 PM CT.

With 24 tributes still in the game, it'll take 13 votes for any one tribute to appease the sponsors.

GAME ON!!!
