Russia Makes Fun of Itself at Sochi Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony

After more than two weeks of competition in the 2014 Winter Olympics at Sochi, Russia, the games have finally concluded with a lavish closing ceremony that features ballet from the Bolshoi, music by Rachmaninov and tribute to Tolstoy and Kandinsky. But the most unexpected scene is the parody of the infamous Olympic ring malfunction as dancers formed themselves into four rings and a small clump. Indeed, Russia had the last laugh.


This is the most expensive Olympics ever with $51 billion spent. The cost could payoff as Russia had the most medals with 33 medals including 13 gold.

The next Winter Olympics will be on 2018 to be held in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

  1. Went here for my friend's wedding. The food was better than expected, the appetizers consisted of chicken skewers, potato ravioli, and a brucetta.
