What did you think about the events and atmosphere during the Olympic Games in Rio?

[OzExorcist]

You believe that the world sees Rio and Brazil in a different way now because the country hosted the olympics.

And when u get a reality check from people around the world, not just me, you go nuts and think the entire planet is wrong.

You're absolutely right.

If the goal of Rio hosting the Olympics was to make the world think it's the next great place they should visit on holidays... it failed miserably.

Marcelo is correct, every big city has crime, and it happens at every major event around the world. But rightly or wrongly, for better or worse, Rio came out of these Olympics looking pretty bad to the rest of the world.

Friends,

I am very proud about everything that my city (Rio de Janeiro) delivered during the Olympic Games Rio2016 and the emotion, quality of the Arenas, general environment for athletes and for the local and foreign people that came to watch the events and games!!

I had the great opportunity and privilege to go to the Olympic Park very close to my house and enter in all the venues of Rio2016 during 13 of the 16 days of the Olympic Games here and I have watched live inside these several venues 14 different sports among the total of 35 and any of them were special and great for me!!

And I hope that all the friends of CC who appreciate sports and that watched by TV in your countries have also liked and enjoyed this magic Olympic Games here in Rio!

What did you think about all the events and about the special atmosphere created during the Olympic Games in Rio? I hope that the image of my city and country have improved and that now more and more people want to visit Rio in the upcoming years!!

Best regards,
MarceloMC

This must have been a great experience for you. I hope I can say the same in 8 years (I'm hungarian and Hungary wants to have the 2024 summer olympics).

As far as I know the hungarian sportsmen were statisfied with Rio. It's a very nice city and nice surroundings.
