estamos falando de um Pan-Americano ainda não é um grande evento,sua pira foi melhor que a 2011,mas a forma que a pira foi acesa poderia ter cido melhor.espero que em 2016 isso não se repitae ainda poderiamos usar um sol que representa muito bem o brasil.

we're talking about a Pan-American is not a big event, his pyre was better than 2011, but the way that the pyre was lit melhor.espero acid could have that in 2016 this is not repitae could still use a sun that represents well as Brazil.

Sim. As cerimônias serão realizadas no Maracanã que está passando por uma reforma total para a Copa de 2014 e os Jogos Olímpicos. Não entendo como alguém consegue achar a pira do Rio 2007 ruim ou feia. É linda, espetacular!

Yes, the ceremonies will be held in the Maracana Stadium which is undergoing a total makeover for the 2014 World Cup and the Olympics. I do not understand how anyone can find the cauldron of the 2007 Rio bad or ugly. It's beautiful, spectacular!

[scorpioninpink]

if that cauldron will be used in 2016... then it will be a disappointing olympic for all of us...

[Jim856796]

The Olympic Flame will not be lighted at Maracana Stadium, It should be lighted at the Joao Havelange Stadium instead.

@meukekeu it should be in the olympics

The cauldron was beautiful! According to the general theme ''THE SUN' (Live this energy).

[MrMiguelE]

YOU CALL THAT A CAULDRON?

Can't wait to see who would light the Olympic flame at this very stadium in 2016!
