Olympic Diving Pool Closed, Whole Building Reportedly "Smells Like a Fart"
By Kyle Koster
It’s been a rough week for the Olympic diving pool. It once looked like inviting blue water. On Tuesday, it turned green. Now it’s closed altogether in the hopes it turns back. It could be worse, though. The venue could also smell horrible.
What’s that? I spoke too soon?

Okay, well at least the water hasn’t had any adverse effects on the athletes who have been in it the past few days.
Reports of divers claiming they have "itchy eyes" after events so the pool has been closed this morning...#Rio2016

Here’s hoping nothing major comes of this and the water settles into a beautiful and fresh hue of blue.
