"In penance for their uprising, each district shall offer up a male and a female between the ages of 12 and 18 at a public 'reaping'. These tributes shall be delivered to the custody of the Capitol. And then transferred into a public arena, where they will fight to the death until a lone victor remains. Henceforth and forevermore this pageant shall be known as 'The Hunger Games.'"
Ladies and Gentlemen.
Let the Sixty-first Hunger Games begin.
