MikeO Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Decision announced in about an hour...between Rio and Madrid as Chicago and Tokyo have been eliminated. Chicago went out first having been the favourites...lovely to watch the faces of the American crowd....lots of this . Apologies to our American members but I'd have been annoyed if they'd got it again! Hopefully go to Rio, South America has never had it which is ridiculous.

I know!.....let's sell the Americans the 2012 games, I think it would be great in Chicago!..Though I do admit to looking forward to the glut of gold medals we will win because it's in England and the many millions it will make British business' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holystove Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Rio won... 2016 Olympics 2014 World Cup.. impressive From every other aspect but the financial one, I love the decision to give it to Rio. But I don't get why they give it to cities that are capable of going bankrupt over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
