According to a figure released by Rep. Yoo Eun-hae of the ruling Democratic Party, the average cost of lodging in Gangneung and PyeongChang has jumped threefold.
I suspect so.
This is a travesty for South Korea.
Also from the article:
According to a figure released by Rep. Yoo Eun-hae of the ruling Democratic Party, the average cost of lodging in Gangneung and PyeongChang has jumped threefold.Eighty-eight percent of the hotels, motels, inns and guesthouses in the area do not have a single room booked during the Olympic period.
This may be the reason for Phat Boi’s recent behavior. And yes, he is that batsh!t crazy.
I’m sure that is one factor.
Another is that the NHL is not allowing their players to participate. Team USA will be made up of minor league scrubs who will likely get stomped by a Russian team from the KHL.
Get it over with before the Olympics then.
Those Olympics people are so brave and full of dignity, you know.
Personally, as a fan of the alpine events, any winter olympics should be held in the mountains of Europe......Anywhere else is like skiing in Florida.
