2016 Olympics Bid Announcement (2nd October 2009) - Various channels live coverage

[@ApprenPlayer]

A big throwback for the 2016 Olympics announcement. I miss these events celebrated in Copenhagen for Rio's success.

[@VictorYong36]

When Rio was announced I thought it was a good choice given the Olympics were never held in South America or in a Portuguese-speaking country before 2016.

[@joesakic91]

I bet Chicago said, "Phew, we dodged a huge bullet by not winning the 2016 Summer Olympic hosting rights."

What a pity for Madrid！！

[@VictorYong36]

Chicago 2016 would’ve been a disaster

[@EntertainmentFilms26]

Madrid was supposed to host those games

[@francis1971]

Is it just me or is the BBC reporter being paid for the number of words he says?

[@andikac]

1:00 maybe next time. it did happen :)

[@Bongaboi151]

Tokyo got 2020.

[@LakeFX]

Sort of.

[@agitohd]

@@LakeFX Tokyo 2020 is a Rehashed Rio 2016 despite the COVID, and Paris 2024 is a rehashed London 2012.

We All Know

[@minnbeef]

History showed Madrid should have won.

[@RollOnToVictory]

.......here's a bill for billions of dollars. Don't worry, just take it out of schools, law enforcement and infrastructure.

[@2843pedro]

well done. the commonwealth games in india was a disaster.

[@Jck9102]

The arrogance of Obama I am sure did it too.

[@greenhornet8262]

No the fact that America has hosted less than 10 years before this did it
