    It’s brilliant. I might go to Oslo now  maybe if I have time.
    Basically I waved a Russian flag at the Opening Ceremony and everyone wanted to know why, considering I’m American-Czech. It was all very funny.

    That price tag includes building the whole city, though.  They were also building resorts, an F1 track and preparing for the arrival of a KHL team.  This is why adding up the costs of the Olympics is always so difficult, because a lot of these projects sometimes would have been done anyway (i.e. new highways or train lines, like the KTX to the east coast in Korea).  I do agree that people didn't want to host the Olympics after seeing these price tags, but it's really short sighted.  It's like saying, "I'm never buying a house because my sister bought one for a million dollars and I don't have a million dollars!"  Maybe you should buy a house, maybe you shouldn't.  But you don't have to buy a million dollar house to be a home owner.

    OMG You are a typical anti-Russian propagandist. Russians always and everywhere are to blame. Give another link to the New York Times

    These were the weakest Olympics in the last 30 years .. Empty arenas, bad schedule and weather, lack of excitement and passion, hockey without NHL, the transformation in x-games, and most importantly - a very nervous and difficult atmosphere. Too much negativity. Such this Olympics will remain in history.

    As a spectator, I’ll do it from that angle:
     
    Favorite moments:
    Gold medal hockey game/finding a German fan club at the game
    15k cross country 
    Any short track event
    Biathlon women’s relay 
    Actually being able to talk to people about biathlon in real life 
    Starting pin trading
    Getting on the Today Show audience/meeting the US team on it 
    Being interviewed by 7 Russian TV channels
    The events at Czech House
    Meeting the Eurosport biathlon commentators
    Getting Koshechkin’s autograph 
    Randomly meeting like 5 exotic athletes
    Being able to use discounts I’m not really eligible for  
     
    Disappointments:
    Opening ceremony- so freezing
    Buses- not enough in times of high demand, often waited an hour
    That I barely caught Ledecka’s medal ceremony (I ran in as the anthem was playing)
    The lack of atmosphere at some events 
    Struggling to understand volunteers 
    That I couldn’t resell tickets because I’m not Korean

    Biathlon hurts, but when your hobby is to rupture your meniscus, I guess the pain of skiing doesn't frighten you at all.
     

     
    She'll start in the relay tomorrow, I'm putting my money on Russia with a pain lover like this.

    Dimast reacted to phelps in [POLL] How were the Winter Olympic Games 2018 for you?   
    I know that all depends on my personal state of mind, which is no longer the same that once was...
     
    but I voted "BAD" also for a series of things strictly connected with the Games themselves...first of all, the awful scheduling (and the "uncomfortable" TV coverage here in Italy)...absolutely the worst ever...then a series of controversies (started well before the Olympics with the "Russian saga", and continued in Pyeongchang with judging scandals, competitions held in unfair conditions, depressing environment in many sports and so on) completed my not so enjoyed and enjoyable Olympics...
     
    I never thought I'd have said just a few minutes after watching the last event: "I'm happy that's all over"...but this time it really happened...
