Ready For It? Bust out your friendship bracelets and olympic rings while we investigate the many ways hosting the Olympics is like hosting a Taylor Swift concert. Does hosting the Summer Olympics make for a Cruel Summer for the host city? Or maybe the host city Should’ve Said No? Should Olympic athletes specialize to become The One to win gold? Or should they leave a Blank Space in their trophy case? Are the Olympic committee Masterminds the Anti-Heros of hosting the Olympics? Or are countries to blame for the Reputation that cheating athletes get with their Bad Blood? You couldn’t even imagine in your Wildest Dreams how entertaining this virtual workshop will be. Sign up today to get Closure on these topics.
