 the Olympic cauldron looked like an urinal.

Please it looks like a dumpster fire. I think this might be the first modern Olympic cauldron that I can recreate in my backyard

When the cauldron was lit, the opening they used to lit the flame was at crotch height and I could swear the guy would urinate inside the cauldron when the ceremony was over.

Well I guess we know how they’ll extinguish the flame at the closing then. However it will be controversial because both a man and woman will have to urinate on the flame

Some of the comments by the official commentators made me cringe, like stating that Bolivia is one of the two landlocked countries in South America or that the United States do well at the Olympics but they don't perform well at the Youth Olympics.

I mean, is this the best they could say about these nations? Really?

Quite odd indeed, about Bolivia they might for example also say they are one of the worlds worst nations ever in the Olympics looking at a combination of population numbers and results

It probably is his last day, because different companies usually produce opening/closing

Even if the same company produced it, it would be his last day...since there apparently is no closing ceremony if I understood it correct here

There is one, but its at the village with all the protocol stuff (handover, speeches etc.) Its only scheduled for 30 mins.

Efficient programming.

I swear I read here that many plan to boycott the Opening ceremony. Interesting.

There's a difference between boycott or just not watch it
