Last Friday, Paola Espinosa, Mexico's Olympic diving medallist illuminated the cauldron that sent fireballs shooting toward the roof of the Omnilife Stadium for the dramatic lighting of the Pan American torch. Among the many prominent Mexican figures present at the event were Mexican President Felipe Calderon, Enriquetta Basilio, who lit the torch at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, local rock group Mana, Eugenia Leon and Colombia's Juanes. The opening games ceremony included traditional regional motifs, vibrant fireworks, lively musical acts as well as the audience's cleverly coordinated use of colored flashlights.
