What took Brazil so long. :noah:
You must not having been paying attention to those shots they had of the studio on Copacabana beach. There was always some women walking around in thongs in the backdrop or when they did a quick fly over:shaq::ahh:

The Comfort Zone
They built all those stadiums for the World Cup and they turned into bus depots because in those particular areas, those people have no use for the facilities. The Olympic Village is gonna get torn down to build high rise bougie condos. The Athens facilities practically don't exist anymore. The facilities for the Winter Olympics in Sochi for 2014 can be bought for a dime because it's pointless for the people to own it. It's all the shady politics and infrastructure issues that make it impossible for cities to continue to want the games (2 cities only are bidding for the Winter ones for 2022 and a lot of cities dropped out of 2024 already).

Your suggestion will essentially bankrupt any city that chooses to host the games multiple times. It's why you don't normally see repeat hosts.

I was just in Athens. Most of that shyt is broke down :snoop:
