Olympic closing ceremony pokes fun at opening ceremony ring fail

The 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi came to an end on Sunday, and the Russians decided to end the Games with a sense of humor.

We were reminded of it during the closing ceremony.

That’s right, Russian officials chose to make fun of themselves during the closing ceremony. Either that, or someone thought it would be funny and has already lost a finger over the stunt. We hope the former is true.
