US Olympic Committee 2024 City Bid Is . . . .

I would run away from ANY BID. It has been proven that to host the Olympics is a logistical nightmare that never wins the city much money.

Most cities lose money when they host.

I agree, I would not want the Olympics in my area. We lived in Atlanta during the 96 games and it just wasn't worth it IMO.Security was pretty tight then, especially the day after the bombing in the park. We had tickets to a baseball game that next day. I can't imagine locals would enjoy with how security will be now days.

I live in the Augusta,GA/CSRA area. I'd tried my level best to ignore the Olympics when it was in Atlanta.
