RIO DE JANEIRO WINS THE 2016 OLYMPIC GAMES

1749: Time for the announcement...

1748:... but first, the Olympic anthem!

1747: There is the envelope - still sealed from the earlier vote - and the announcement is moments away. Are you ready? Welcome to the stage IOC president Jacques Rogge...

Go cry on the beaten corpse of another kid Chicago.

As I said in the Random Talk thread, it looks like we're gonna have an Olympics full of kidnappings and murders in Rio!

As said, Chicago has no business hosting the Olympic games. It's enough of a clusterfuck as it is, no sense in adding the Olympics to it.

It doesn't help when there is a 50/50 split between those who want it and those who don't.

I can't wait to see what the 2016 Summer Olympics videogame will look like on the Mega Drive!

Obama

Oprah

Kanye

So now that Obama has failed his Chicago cronies will they ensure he loses in 2012?

To be fair, you could say the exact same thing about Rio de Janeiro.

Yeah, but at least there are some pretty sights for good aerial and location shots. Chicago is flat concrete and steel. Oh look at those inspiring high rises!

Yeah sorry but lets look at list of cities competing:

-Rio
-Madrid
-Tokio
-Chicago

One of these just isnt on the same level on international recognition, sights, culture etc.

Where is Tokio? Do they allow 13 year old rape there?

Meh, Olympics.

They should think about holding these things once per millennium. It would make them more meaningful.

And maintain the ancient Greek dress code for the athletes?

Considering the next round wouldn't be until 3008, sure. Why not.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #18 on:** October 02, 2009, 03:47:32 PM »

Not a huge deal. I read that only 47% of Chicagoans supported the bid, and the economic impact I had seen floating around ($13B) is more likely around $4B.
