Much of the Olympic fanfare aside from the competition itself will be different in Tokyo this summer.
One tradition expected to go by wayside: pin trading.
Every two years, spectators from across the globe travel to a host city and trade the thousands of pins produced by stakeholders in the Games. For some fans, it's a big deal.
But the COVID-19 restrictions outlined in the organizing committee's "playbook," along with foreign spectators prohibited from attending this year, would make the swapping of pins nearly impossible.
Coincidentally, the International Olympic Committee had been in partnership with nWay, a video game developer and subsidiary of Animoca Brands.
