我要评论The diving pool for the Summer Olympics mysteriously turned green this week in Rio de Janeiro, then the pool next to it turned from blue to a lighter shade of green.
It's all very weird -- but Friday's explanation from a Rio 2016 spokesman is even weirder.
SEE ALSO:OK, let's talk about sex at the Rio OlympicsThe diving pool was closed for practice Friday morning as officials struggled to fix the off-color water. The governing body of international swimming blamed the problem on a shortage of water-treating chemicals.
