It looks like the OP is banned, but can we have a post on the front page where we keep a running total of all the specific mishaps? Just a list of stuff that's happened to the Australians sounds like it'd be pretty substantial.

an athlete can be stripped of their medals if they acknowledge a sponsor that isn't an official olympic sponsor, right? if that's the case, i can't wait to see who gets to be the modern-day version of Jim ThorpeLime Tonics posted:Yeah, someone should make a new thread, but not until tomorrow at the start of the ceremony.

The Russian media is already reporting that it was a Brazilian doing the shooting. They just don't know when to take the credit.

Are neither Coca Cola or Pepsi a main sponsor for the Olympics in Rio? Usually they are all over that poo poo, but I haven't seen any commercials or special Olympic packaging.

One of the requirements for hosting the olympics is that minibars in all the rooms are stocked with coke products and all the vending machines everywhere have to be filled with coke products and coke comes out of the taps in the room and at least one swimming event takes place in a pool of coke.

Then they died because they forgot the water is toxic.

I love watching the military music fests that go on over in Europe and Moscow, but goddamn, the Russian announcers just jabber on through the whole show in Moscow, even when their own bands perform. Just shut the gently caress up, we get it, Russia #1, Putin is strong, whatever

I love you zika-chan. Also, this feels like the start of a zombie outbreak movie except instead of zombies its just Rio's residents and being stuck there with them. I hope Bob Costas gets kidnapped for real.
