It’s no secret that the Olympic village where the athletes are staying in Rio is not the most glamorous of places, and Dallas Mavericks center Andrew Bogut provided us with a closer look at it on Monday night.
Using the hashtag #IOCLuxuryLodging, Bogut mocked the housing conditions in a series of tweets. In one of them, he showed himself rigging up a shower curtain so he and his roommate could “shower and not flood the place.”
In the OLY village. Upon first looks its only fitting I will be posting pics with the hashtag #IOCLuxuryLodging #rio2016

At #IOCLuxuryLodging we believe a bed is not vital for sleep. Fine tuned athletes can sleep standing up. https://t.co/FcsEAf33Sm

This should be fun.
If you remember, the Australian Olympic Committee previously deemed its section of the Olympic village in Rio uninhabitable, listing a number of alarming concerns about the accommodations after running some early tests. Bogut, of course, is playing for the Australian national basketball team.
