I was a bit pessimistic about this being possible, but to see that we did this in the 1984 Olympics without any light rail is pretty amazing to hear.

Yeah I'm less worried about LA's transportation nightmare and more about what happens if a standard California wildfire summer sends LA air quality into hazardous levels for the entire event

In Paris athletes got sick after swimming in the seine. In LA they will just have to breathe. Updates people, updates!
