Michael Phelps sneaked into Beijing almost unnoticed. He’s unlikely to go out that way.
The probable star of the Beijing Olympics avoided hundreds of fans, photographers and reporters Monday by taking a side door out to a waiting bus while his team mates pushed luggage trolleys calmly through the arrival gate at Beijing’s new Terminal 3, a sprawling addition to the city’s airport.
Phelps, who’s grown a mustache while training in Singapore, was eventually spotted by dozens of reporters and photographers, sitting by a window on the team bus. He ignored most of the cameras, glancing in their direction a few times as he adjusted the fit of his baseball cap.
