They already took out the roof of the olympic pool, leaving the athlets and audience to stomach the greek summer hoven. But as Sydney Black said on the Daily Show, "if it gets too hot, jump in the frigginī pool"!!
To finish the stadiums in Greece, I think that the organizers will have to institute a new competition for construction workers from all around the world to complete unfinished structures.

Can you imagine getting a gold medal in concrete pouring? Or, a bronze medal in brick work?
