> [@EddyTeddyFreddy](#): > > Remember when Chicago put in a bid to host the Olympics, the Obamas supported that bid, and when it failed the rightwingers were ecstatically gleeful? Their flag-waving patriotism is only skin-deep. To be fair, a lot of us Chicagoans were happy, too. Hosting the Olympics is almost always a losing proposition, and given Chicago’s proven inability to deliver major public works projects on budget and on schedule, the Olympics could have been a next-level boondoggle. But yeah, Republicans? Fuck those guys. ---

Oh, I understand. Boston was looking to host the Olympics a while back and lost out, which was a relief to most sane people. But the reaction was, yes, quiet relief, not cackling glee that the pols pushing it got embarrassed. ---

Yeah, they didn’t give a shit about whether the Olympics would have been good for the U.S. or for Chicago. What really mattered was that Obama lost. ---

Los Angeles hosted the Olympics twice, and both times (I’m sure about the second; not absolutely sure about the first) made a profit. It can be done. It was really funny. Everybody thought the L.A. traffic would kill everything. But a huge number of people either left town or took time off (I did). There were no traffic problems at all. ---

> [@carrps](#): > > Los Angeles hosted the Olympics twice Here’s one of my banners. (Well, not actually mine. I couldn’t be arsed to dig out my flags box to take my own picture; but this is what it looks like.) I think I have two of them. [[Album] imgur.com ![](https://i.imgur.com/VGE3Kpt.jpeg?fb "imgur.com") ](https://imgur.com/a/qpEJ41v) I also have the white flag with the rings. (Possibly two of those as well.) ---

I have one in great condition. Because I didn’t live too far from the company that made them, and you could buy them there. But I also have a little flag-on-a-stick version that I got when I walked down to see part of the women’s marathon. ---

I’m pissed off today because he would prefer to live in France, but I guess can’t afford the airfare, or something? [linky](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-says-he-would-prefer-being-abroad-us-1818439) Of course, none of his flag hugging supporters will see anything wrong with this. ---

> [@carrps](#): > > I didn’t live too far from the company that made them, and you could buy them there. Mine are in great condition. Better than the one in the image I found. IIRC, I got them at a place called AAA (‘AAA Flags and Banners’? Something like that?) in L.A., and I believe they were made there. I remember there was a bit of a line to get in. ---

> [@carrps](#): > > Everybody thought the L.A. traffic would kill everything. But a huge number of people either left town or took time off (I did). There were no traffic problems at all. OTOH, one of the venues for the soccer competition was at Stanford University. I was getting certified in massage in evening classes at a school in downtown Palo Alto and one of the nights coincided with a popular match at the university. Traffic was wretched and, ten minutes late, I was the first one there including the instructor. About five minutes later one of my classmates arrived and she let the wall support her as she slid to the floor going, “Gah-h-h-h damn.” “US vs. Germany.” “Oh, yeah.” Everyone else trickled in over the the next twenty minutes and the class started late. The Peninsula doesn’t have the infrastructure Los Angeles does.
