Have you not seen some of them with past Olympics?

Sure I do, and based on the cost of the games currently and the projected work they could go 100% over and it still would be neither paralyzing nor a massive tax burden. And it won’t go 100% over.
So yeah, I suppose if you mean “real risk” as in, a risk that exists no matter how insignificant. If you mean a risk that we should actually consider, then no, it’s not real. It will be neither paralzying, nor massive, period.
