Some events were held in the Coliseo El Pueblo. Boxing was staged in the Plaza de Toros Cañaveralejo, a Cali bullring. Some complaints were made about the barracks-style housing, which was woefully overcrowded. In an effort to protect the athletes from students who had protested the amount of money that Colombia was spending on the games, security-minded officials surrounded the athletes' village with barbed wire and guards carrying rifles. The overcrowding caused it to be dubbed "Claustrophobia Manor" by the athletes.http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,877215,00.html The Pain-Am Games - TIME 21 December 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20081221200259/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,877215,00.html 11 February 2024 2008-12-21 Other concerns centered on mosquitoes, the altitude, faulty plumbing, dysentery and pickpockets.
