I don't know, Russia seems pretty cool. A nation of hot women, cars with dash cams, roadside fist fights, and the craziest white people on the planet! The village was overrun with stray dogs and they were shooting them. The hotels were unfinished and the water was brown. Not making this shit up. All well-documented. I love Russian women but there are many parts of Russia that are practically third world. Sure you're not talking about Bridgeport?

From 2012: www.ctpost.com/local/article/Forbes-lists-Bridgeport-as-fourth-dirtiest-city-4109650.php"Citing blighted buildings, polluted property and poor air quality, Forbes Magazine named Bridgeport as the fourth "dirtiest city" in America. But look at the bright side Bridgeport residents: Your city is cleaner than Fresno, Calif.; Bakersfield, Calif.; and Philadelphia."

Unfortunately it seems the controversial Giselle Bundchen skit has been cut from the opening ceremonies. Such a shame.
"A controversial skit featuring Gisele Bündchen apparently being robbed by a black kid from the slums has been dropped from the Olympics opening ceremony.
Thousands of people were invited to the dress rehearsal for the opening ceremony that will kick off the 2016 summer Olympic Games over the weekend at the Maracanã Stadium. Reports leaked soon after that the Brazilian supermodel got accosted by a boy in “plain clothes” which was followed by a police chase.
Filmmaker Fernando Meirelles, who is the creative director for opening ceremony, told the Washington Post that the media and the viewers in attendance misinterpreted that part of the show, saying it was a “tremendous misunderstanding.”
“Imagine us doing a scene like that in the opening,” he wrote in an email to the newspaper. “I’m not that clueless.”
So how clueless are you?

WLF! Who thinks a skit like this would be appropriate or funny? The viewers misinterpreted that? He is beyond clueless. And they got all the way through dress rehearsal before deciding that maybe, just maybe, they shouldn't do the skit. unbelievable!

Been there. Luckily I had some local company. Views are amazing, great nightlife, chicks are good to go, great food but dangerous as hell.

The USA should score gold in the wrestling if The Rock, Triple H and Brock Lesner represent.
