The Olympic rings that have adorned the Eiffel Tower since June were removed early Friday, although the Paris City Hall hopes to replace them with a more permanent structure until 2028.

    Wasn’t that obvious? It would be crazy to keep them for other 4 years

      Well, the tower was also supposed to be temporary and yet, it’s still there 137 years later.

        They should have kept them there, like badges. Collected more and gotten totally blinged out. It should have a badge for WWII.

    I mean, obviously? It’s over. You don’t leave your Christmas decorations up until next time 'round either.

          If you can make it through the labyrinth filled with fog machines, strobe lights, and swinging sickles at neck height, yes
