The 2014 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony suffered quite the malfunction. Five snowflakes were supposed to expand into the iconic Olympic rings, but couldn’t quite manage.
While the first four snowflakes transformed into the rings, one snowflake didn’t quite morph leaving four large rings and one random snowflake suspended in the air at Fisht Stadium.
Unfortunately this isn’t the only issue the Winter Olympics have had thus far. It’s starting to seem like everyone in Sochi just can’t catch a break. The struggles have become so evident that “#SochiProblems” has become one of the most popular Olympic-related hashtags.
Check out some of the hilarious #SochiProblem tweets below.

I got in my room at 2 a.m. the other night, 5 hours after arriving in Russia. They gave me a brand-new shower curtain and nowhere to hang it

Having dinner at luxury resort across from media hotels. Gorgeous except for dozen guests stuck in an elevator banging on the glass for help

Favorite line of the week from the young Sochi volunteer on the bus, "we don't have problems in Russia, we have adventures".#SochiProblems

Ohhhh it's supposed to be the Olympic Games. Easy mistake; Sochi thought they were hosting the Hunger Games #SochiProblems
