I'm sure even more of these tweets and pictures will become available. Sochi is nowhere close to being ready to host the Olympics. It will be a total failure.


"My hotel has no water. If restored, the front desk says, "do not use on your face because it contains something very dangerous."



"Water restored, sorta. On the bright side, I now know what very dangerous face water looks like."

I just checked Wikipedia. Russia's GDP is about $20.00.

You hear about the IOC choosing cities because of politics, but that really is amazing that they could choose a country with such conditions.

It is embarrassing. I've heard from friends that say this shouldn't be a big deal because it shows the world how some people live. Horse manure. This is the Olympics, a celebration of the world's greatest athletes. It isn't a teen backpacking tour in the Andes with local guides. We don't put the Super Bowl in jackbat Mississippi. This area should never have been selected and it shows the corruption of the IOC.

Wrong. Only the winner of the contest cares because they're missing $20 of the prize.

Six months from now their will be videos about the "Sochi Olympic ghost town" which cost billions of rubles.

Plenty of tickets available....

The cheapest tickets go for 500 rubles ($15), the most expensive for 40,000 rubles ($1,200). More than half of all tickets cost less than 5,000 rubles ($150). The average monthly salary in Russia is 30,000 rubles ($890).
The one and only authorized ticket office in Sochi was busy on a recent afternoon, with three dozen people lining up at what once was a waiting room at the city's railway station. Many, however, complained that all the cheap tickets were already gone.

''Prices leave much to be desired, but what can you can do?'' said Sochi resident Yana Ivolovskaya, who bought two tickets for bobsled for 2,000 rubles ($60). ''We're not going to get another Olympics in Sochi so I thought I should go.''

I would think the people who lost $20 and actually paid would care more.

Considering he's by far in last place, he deserves to be out $20 more than anybody. His team is the Sochi of the Ohio Chatter fantasy basketball league.

lol - Sochi of the OC fantasy bball league. Good 1.

The people who paid but lost $20 are not really effected. They still lost and were not effected by ccrunner being cheap.

ta da! This.

Problem is some (see posts above) don't get that they sound like whiny bitches with their constant trolling about the $20 which obviously 609 will never pay.

Ban ccrunner to the basement until the league is over and stfu about the $20.

Someone ban said because fuck it.

Plain and simple

I'll watch. Not sure if it's going to be a disaster. But I wouldn't go, either.
