Let's Play Beijing 2008 (Blind) - Last Time in China - Olympic Offal #4
4Fourteen years ago, the Olympics were in Beijing but it was the summer version. It was a massive undertaking to construct not only the massive infrastructure necessary to hold the Olympics but build memorable, instantly iconic venues like the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube rather than generic stadia.
Of course, that overlooks numerous concerns and controversies about those Olympics. For example, there were numerous worries about the impact of air and water pollution on the events and athletes. Allegations were made about the legality to participate of members of the Chinese gymnastics team. There was all the usual human rights concerns that one might associate with China.
Oh yeah, and the official video game was awful too.
