I'm an Olympic junkie so first of all YES YES YES!

 

Now as for the price tag, I'm interested in seeing the revenue generated both for private businesses and for the city itself typically for summer games. And it's not just during the games. Whatever city is chosen gets a spike in tourism the years before and after the Olympics.

 

How much of the TV revenue does the city get?

 

Finally, this is all a pipe dream. After the USOC got egg on its face with Chicago losing to Rio for 2016 even after bringing in the president to speak for them, they'll want a less risky nominee than Jax.
