If anything can go wrong, it will.
Slate has a good take on everything that could go wrong in Beijing this summer. My favourite? The threat of locusts. The most underrated? That the food (all of it grown locally) in the Athletes' Village might be too stuffed with steroids and the like for Olympic competitors to eat. It'd be a huge black eye for China if a bunch of athletes got disqualified and blamed it on the food provided by the BOCOG.
Ironically, the Chinese love to eat locusts, so maybe if the bugs can't be kept at bay the whole steroid-food issue might be a moot point.
