The international media has been doing a great job bashing the Rio Olympics athletes village over the streams of crap, unfinished rooms, security, fire alarms, etc. By now you know the athletes village is a mess.
So let’s take a look at where the media is staying.
Annnnnnndddddd….the pool area looks like a 4.5-star resort.

San Francisco sports columnist Ann Killion shot this video of her apartment for the next 2.5 weeks or so. Looks pretty nice to me. Bust out a couple columns each day, go back to the village, hit the pool and drink some beers. I’d sleep on the floor for that assignment.

I know some Chinese media are complaining that they don’t have running water. So take a bath in the pool. I do it all summer in Ohio. Get some bottles of water to drink & brush your teeth. Or find a side piece who’ll let you stay at her place so you can grab a shower.

So the sink doesn’t work. The water didn’t run anyway. You weren’t going to use it.

Would you rather have a stupid working sink or that pool setup for the next 2.5 weeks? It’s like these candy asses never went to college. Take the mattress and throw it on the floor by the air conditioner. Grab a couple cases of beer and throw a rager. You’ll leave after the Olympics and never care about that apartment again.
Yeah, this looks miserable.

Drop a deuce, hit the pool just like you do in Vegas. Live a little.
