Borat to host Olympics. It's a very nice
« on: October 02, 2014, 06:11:53 PM »
Well possibly the Winter Olympics in 2022. Only 2 places seem to want it, Beijing (100 miles from the nearest Skiing mountain) and Almaty in Kazakhstan. Norway is the latest to drop out the running after deciding it was too expensive.

I'm thinking Beijing is more likely.

Why not Birmingham ?

Bob-sleigh down Temple Street and Downhill Skiing at Tamworth.

I'm surprised that Denver's never had the Winter Olympics.

They could have hosted in 1976 but turned it down.

We should go for it, surely it couldn't be more embarrassing than the '92 bid.
