One of the rings didn't light up during the ceremony.

The question on everyone's mind: Will Putin take off his shirt or wrestle a tiger as part of opening ceremonies? #sochi#olympics

— Loco Eric (@ericsshadow) February 8, 2014You know it's a formal event when Putin has a shirt on. #Sochi#OpeningCeremonies
— Brian Hemhauser (@Brian_Hemhauser) February 8, 2014Haven't been watching opening ceremonies. Is Putin shirtless? #Sochi

— darth™ (@darth) February 7, 2014Russian President Vladimir Putin has been known to ride a horse shirtless from time to time but at the opening ceremonies last Friday, he kept his shirt on. Sorry, world. Then again, there's always the closing ceremonies. Cross your fingers!
