As the games are now officially starting to wind down, a lot of people here are wondering and comparing these rio games to the ones in sochi russia just two years ago. Theres a lot of comparisons and a lot of questions. Who did it better and what happens when the athletes go fades away . They put on games of opposite seasons. They sit in lands of opposite hemispheres but sochi russia and Rio De Janeiro brazil share a similar tale. Hosting the olympics and hoping it will pay off. Sochi did it glitzy, it the arena sparkled at night. Rio spent billions for sure, but they have offered a more austere olympics. Their venues impress less on the outside, though they still shine but, what will become of them . In sochi, we wondered if the massive spending would go to waste. Two years later, leaders are still trying to fill the venues and make it work. In rio, we wonder about the venues. We worry about the economy. Nearly every brazilian we have met fears the government has poured so much money into the games that it will struggle to support its people. Essentially, these games bring the same conflicts as any other. Competition and the closing ceremony.
