Shit.

That was the only good one too.

pls no LA

Yeah!! more chance for Budapest

wonderful

Budapest would be cool.

LA needs to be sunk into the ocean.

>Americans passionately hating LA and California

why does this keep happening?

Is it really so bad there?
I-i was always kind of interested in visiting LA and Cali, a-am I stupid?

Vacationing there is awesome, I highly reccomend.

Living there is hell, and califagians are the worst people in the country other than MAYBE Chicagoans. I wish both of those groups would stop moving en masse to my Colorado and ruining it.

>not new york

So it's basically like NYC
I loved being there as a tourist, but could never imagine actually living there.

People from Colorado are just as annoying.

Literally the only option I wanted to see.

Too many dumb spics. Bad to be around them.

Rome is seriously overrated desu, the amount of garbage and gypsies make Paris and LA look clean by comparison.

Why do the neverlands never get to host anything?
Are we not bribing enough people?

No more parties in LA

Anyone know why?


(Mafia?)

You had the chance with the 2019 European games. You didn't convince enough people it was worth hosting despite Baku being sort of a success

Mafia would love it, hosting an Olympics is just more trouble than gain, or at least that's what the new major thinks

hosting olympics is just a waste of money that will benefit only the olympic committee.

There is no reason for a city to want to host olympics now

Why not? I feel like netherlands would be a good host for a Euro or even a world cup

We can't afford it and Roma is the worst city to organize something as big as the olympics.

it is the new mayor of five star movement, a tinfoiled web-party that always opposed the Olympics.
I think Rome would have needed the Olympics to fix some infrastructure problems it have right now.
mafia actually wants the olympics as said. at the 2006 Torino Olympics there were a lot of money eaten by mafia and businessmen.

euro 2000

Because hosting the Olympics is a waste of money and a potential PR nightmare. There's really no reason for a first world city to host the Olympics unless it's for the sake of ego stroking. That's why LA and Paris, the two most arrogant cities on the planet, are still in the running.

Would the olympics be at the grand Budapest hotel? Thats the only noteworthy thing in all of budapest

Yeah but we don't move elsewhere to shit up the place, everyone else fucking comes here and brings their shitty coastal culture with them.

In the case of LA, it's neither a waste of money nor a PR nightmare. With all the established infrastructure, it's pretty easy for the city to make money by hosting.

>I think Rome would have needed the Olympics to fix some infrastructure problems it have right now.
why not just fix the infrastructure without the olympics?

This.

Really, a lot of Italy is overrated, desu.

>Italy
>Money

so being selected as a host city for the olympics makes money magically appear in the public coffers?

Good news!

Don't worry. The way the IOC operates, the Chink and raghead oligarchs will already have their bribes lined up for Pah-Ree since it's ranked waaayyy ahead of El Gay in their hierarchy of cities (I'm pretty sure that Rome is ranked ahead of El Gay as well) and plus the rest of the boneheaded rank-and-file voters will file suit when the French government shows a semblance of a tangible security plan for the games.

it's just Sup Forums cancer memes spreading into other boards

Hate Chicagoans because you ain't a Chicagoan
Go figure. Buttmad faggots get senstive about not living in the best city in the country

Budapest would be nice, don't think Eastern Europe (not Russia) had Olympics yet and Budapest can easily host it in place of
Prague/Warsaw.
Thing is would they be arsed to have the extortionate costs - depends if they manage to scrub some EU golds like we did in 2012.

California is the America of America

now you see why the other states hate us

The same reason Bavarians hate Berlin.

Fait chier...

>don't think Eastern Europe (not Russia) had Olympics
sarajevo (unless you don't consider yugoslavia part of eastern europe)

inferiority complex?

>Rome officially pulls out of the 2024 Olympics bidding contest.
haha no they haven't.
The mayor and her party (m5s) are trying to still get the olympics but blaming PD(government party) for it.

Why is everyone cheering for Budapest? I know the city is beautiful and all, but they just don't have the money for it. Hungary is an Eastern European country, and their prime minister is fucking insane.

Probably because Paris will get bombed and no one wants LA to get it because it will be the 3rd time they've had it in the last 22 games.

Waaaaaaaaaaaay too many gypsies in both Rome and Budapest (been both places, so not just memeing). So the choice should be between getting bombed in Paris by ISIS or getting mugged and shot in a drive-by in L.A.

Hmm...

Personally I'd vote for L.A. just because French people are the worst people in Europe, and probably the World in general.

>So it's basically like NYC

Nah, NYC actually has a soul, is organized in a way that makes at least some sense, and you can walk around without getting stabbed/shot by Guillermo or Tyrone.

great city, great women, goat and cheap escorts

Cute, I don't consider Mexicans to be "the America of America"

If it's so fuckig great why does your ill leave your city as staggering rates to ruin its surrounding Midwestern neighbors (and a fuckload of you come to Colorado too which is annoying as hell)?

If it's so great get your neighbors to fucking stay there.

Disappointing. Don't bother coming to the party then

The rest of the Cali cities are great tourist destinations to visit. But LA can be a bit of a dump.

Pls no LA, their time zone is shit for Europeans.

Paris and LA have each hosted it twice
(Rome had hosted it already too)
To me a big part of the purpose of the Olympics is to open up the world, and Budapest would do this moreso than the other two

I've been to Rome, Paris and Budapest in the last few years and Budapest was the best by a mile

inferiority complex

If it goes to LA, will we Americans still have to watch the opening ceremony on a tape delay in our own fucking country?

Just let it be in Europe.

I can't handle the American timezone shenanigans

>a-am I stupid?
you're probably just a typical nu-male hipster faggot that constantly praises Apple and Tesla for their innuvashiun.

>it's another braindead piddino episode

California is a shithole to live in if you aren't rich. It's probably OK to visit, I guess.

Didn't know you had to stay in the state you were born in. Really makes me ponder

It's going to be Paris lads. It's 2016. It's time for the First African Olympics.

Really pulling for Budapest, but it's going to be France. The Olympics were founded by a Frenchie and they still love France.

>le LA is dangerous meme

I had to walk 40 minutes at night to my hotel in south central LA and literally nothing happened to me. You guys are just pussies living in fear

Our prime minister is OK and based, but yeah we don't have the money for it.

of course, all that IOC tax mon- WAIT

We JUST had them in Brazil, in case you forgot.

>their prime minister is insane

Oh noes he isn't super leftist and all smiles oh shit he must be crazy

Never said that, but you should assimilate into the culture you are moving into.

Californians move to other states and say "oh thank god this place isn't demolished yet, quick let's set into motion policies and culture like what led to our previous home eating itself"

Most people from their areas actually attempt to integrate into the communities they move into.

>You are now aware that Denver refused to host the Winter Olympics in the 70s after they were awarded the right to host the games.

Sup Forums here...let me inform you goyIim how to make a thread...

POST THE FUCKING SOURCE!!!

>literally having to use BBC+VPN to watch a fucking event live here
Fuck that I'm winning the lottery and moving to a decent part of California.

I think you missed a joke there m8

Yeah, because back then Denver was based and realized having a shitload of obnoxious tourists plus losing massive amounts of money isn't worth it.

Now it's shit and overrun with Cali transplants and would almost certainly accept both an Olympic bid AND the World Semen-slurping Championships

explain it to me, Italy

Jesus christ Ahmed, you of all people should get the joke.

Please explain.

1 - Great sporting country
2 - Beautiful city
3 - tried to host many times
4 - The other already hosted

Fuck the Olympics! Good for Rome and the Italians for waking up. I am totally Anti-Olympics as the movement has become a mere shell of the ideology it once was. The Olympics bring nothing but suffering and corruption wherever it goes. The host city and government does not benefit a single dime. Don't be surprised if the IOC, Olympic Games, and Paralympic Games cease to exist in our lifetime as now cities and governments are seeing what these games bring to whoever hosts it. I feel sorry for the city that has to host the 2024 Olympics.

>The new mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi, is poised to announce that Rome will formally end their bid to host an Olympic Games for the first time since 1960 to focus on other pressing matters affecting the country.

>Raggi is a well-known opponent of Rome’s 2024 ambitions. During her election campaign earlier this year, the 38-year-old stressed that her city should focus on meeting their own financial needs first before hosting the biggest sporting event in the world. Rome currently has a gigantic debt of £13.6bn. According to Italian news outlet La Repubblica, an announcement of Rome’s withdrawal could come as early as tomorrow.

>Rome’s withdrawal comes seven months after a poll found that almost 80% of the Italian population supported the bid. Research poll conducted by IPSOS interview 2200 people and recorded a 77% support rate.

>38-years old

Isn't she a bit young to be in charge of a major metropolitan city?

Also
>80% of the Italian population supported the bid
Top Kek

I am not a piddino and Renzi is shit. but also M5S is shit, and I live where they are in charge.
Honestly italian politics is cringey at the moment, noone to vote for, really

romans voted for her because of some scandals with the past administrations.
she is just a poster girl, the puppeteers are in Milan and they give her orders.
her M5S party is scary as fuck mate, but governing party PD is even worse.
Trump and Clinton are creepy but not as much as italian Pd and M5S and the walking corpse of Berlusconi

because Italian Olympic Committe would have spent obe billion dollars on the Olympics.
I would be pretty annoyed if I was a roman desu sempai.
funny thing is, the mayor of my city Palermo tried to make >us a candidate city but everybody laughed at that, we have Bangladesh-tier infrastructures kek

Thanks for the insight. I don't know how things work in Italian politics at all, but 38 years old and mayor of the largest city in the country sounds downright awkward. Generally, people at 38 who want to be into Politics are just getting their start as a Council member, but not mayor of a multi-million population city.

I have no idea what you just wrote. Is that a recipe for tomato sauce?

I hope Paris will quit too

>trump
>creepy

Stupid, yes, but not creepy.

Honestly Paris and LA are garbage cities, they were really not what I imagined. Budapest was actually nice, and I want to see the Olympics in a non Muslim place

>People thinking LA will get it.

Budapest is going to get the games because the IOC wants to give everyone a chance to host them. USA hosted 4 Summer Olympics and they all sucked ass.

Which begs the question, how did Salt Lake host such a decent Winter Olympics?

No one cares about the White man Olympics

>Hungary
>Non Muslim

I don't think so Hong.

Are you retarded or something?

>According to the 2011 Hungarian census, there were 5,579 Muslims in Hungary, or 0.056% of the total population

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Hungary

he is just american

Hungary is filled with muslims, kikes and gypsies. Hope they dont get elected

>Stupid, yes
>he thinks he's gotten this far on luck
Agree with his politics or not, people who legitimately think he's stupid are only outing themselves as stupid.

Brazil again. All other choices will suffer terrorism, natural disasters and fagotry

>Budapest was actually nice
Which is exactly why I don't want them to get them. They don't have the money for it and it's going to ruin one of my favorite places. Fuck that.

Budapest is cool as fuck m8.

I think it's creepy because us italians saw a billionaire businessman turning into ruler of a country, he was also the owner of the best football team in the world before joining politics.
in Italy the media pushes Clinton and belittle crazy berlusconesque Trump, some think Hillary is as dangerous as Trump if not worse.

His primary strategy was great.

His general election strategy has been terrible.
