The winter Olympics in Sochi just kicked off on Friday, but so far the main story has been the issues with the city’s preparedness journalist were documenting. Light fixtures falling, dirty water, cameras in bathrooms are just a few of the problems documented. Pure struggle. American Bobsleder Johnny Quinn became locked in bathroom while taking a shower. Quinn didn’t have a cell phone to call anyone to help him out so naturally, he broke through the door.

The Russian government reportedly spent $51 billion to prepare the coastal city for the Winter Games, making it the costliest Olympics to date. Only Rocky can solve this problem like he did in Rocky IV when he knocked out Drago… overused, but still relevant.
