Sadly,Annette Haven in Peaches and Cream porn movie (1981) only six months after the Rio Games ended, it looks like several of the city’s major Olympic venues are already falling apart.
Since the Paralympics closing ceremony on Sept. 18, the key games precinct has been shut down, the Maracanã Stadium has been looted, and the Olympic golf course is struggling to stay afloat. It's an unfortunate situation we've seen happen after Olympics in other cities, too.

Windows inside the stadium have been smashed, copper wire stolen from walls and ceilings, and 10 percent of the 78,000 seats have reportedly been torn up. Even more obviously, the vibrant green playing surface that once held the world's finest athletes is now almost completely bare.
It was even reported Rio's electric company cut off power to the stadium in late January in response to unpaid bills in the ballpark of $940,000.
The venue, which aside from the 2016 Games has been used by four major Rio club teams andhosted the final match of the 1950 World Cup, has now been completely empty since the conclusion of the Olympics.
The city's $20-million golf course also doesn't look so great. The Guardianreported that course superintendent Neil Cleverly said his company Progolf hasn't been paid by the Brazilian Golf Confederation for two months.
Four other venues at Olympic Park also haven't attracted new operators since the end of the games. Two arenas -- the velodrome and tennis centre -- have been effectively closed down, as they're off-limits to the community and visitors.
While the Olympic athletes’ 800,000-square-meter village remains open, few locals actually want to buy into it. Planned to be public housing after the Olympics, Rio residents find the village to be too expensive, and it now sits relatively empty.
An Amnesty study said Rio’s Olympics left “a shady legacy of a city entrenched with marginalisation and discrimination ... and a record of human rights violations where violence remains part of the game."
While the affluent citizens have benefitted from the games with improved public transportation, Rio's poor suffered, with almost 80,000 residents being forced out of their homes to make room for the games.
