Heres how it went down:Dozens of overjoyed spectators at the Olympic stadium in Rio de Janeiro tried to muscle their way in on the photographs that were being snapped by the great man himself.But not everyone was so happy at being featured.One woman actually looked decidedly discontent, as the below GIF from NBC shows. Perhaps she was supporting Canadas Andre De Grasse, who dipped across the line in second place'We found the one person in the world who isn't a fan of @usainbolt...#Rio2016 pic.twitter.com/hWO4YH5hdV NBC Olympics (@NBCOlympics) August 19, 2016 Bolts appreciation of his fans inside the Olympic stadium didnt go unnoticed on Twitter, with many users praising him for paying tribute to them.He is magic.
