Olympic Ring Fails Spectacularly During Sochi Opening Ceremony


  • Sochi has been fraught with problems in the days leading up to the Olympics, but no one issue has been quite so telling of Russia's hosting struggles as a malfunction at its opening ceremony that lead to an incomplete set of Olympics rings going up on display. While the ceremony was supposed to feature all five rings growing from small snowflakes into the Olympic logo's five intersecting circles, the top-right ring failed to expand alongside the others, leaving four circles beside what looked almost like an asterisk. Although that may have been a glaring mistake in the ceremony, the overall show was very well executed and quite impressive.
