Johnny Quinn, US bobsledders get stuck in elevator

Of all the troubles athletes and visitors have been having at the Winter Olympics in Sochi, US bobsledder Johnny Quinn may be having the worst luck. Over the weekend, Quinn had to destroy a door after he got locked in the bathroom while showering. On Monday, he and his teammates got stuck in an elevator.

“No one is going to believe this but we just got stuck in an elevator,” Quinn wrote on Twitter. “Ask @BOBSLEDR and @Crippsee who were there…”

If this is a prank, it is one that has been well executed. Fellow bobsledders David Cripps and Nick Cunningham also tweeted from the inside of the elevator.

Of course I'm with @JohnnyQuinnUSA when the elevator door breaks and we get stuck! Good thing I'm with him! pic.twitter.com/cnVQlDgQV4

The next time you’re at the Olympics and you want to complain about having to throw toilet paper in a waste basket or not being allowed to use the extra bed in your room, just remember it could be worse. You could be Johnny Quinn.
