    The Official Utah 2034 Winter Olympics Thread

    May as well get this baby started. Not sure the board will be around in 10 years, but here's hoping.

      That's awesome! And the board will be around in 10 years. Huge thanks to the Dude, BFM, and everyone in the community for keeping this thing going.

              Nobody else is bidding on the 2034 games, so there you go.

                Wow, Utah scared everyone else so much that they're not even going to try?

                  I read an article that said that basically only 15 countries can even bid for the Winter Olympics anymore under the current requirements. 80% infrastructure already in place, dependable winter climate.
                  Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                    Should be good to go as long as we still have winters in 2034.

                        I was hoping for 2030, assuming that the tabcats have similar involvement as last time. Unfortunately it will be 2 years after they kick me out.

                          It’s the Dude’s board. I don’t do squat.

                              Mrs. NWC is happy for you Utahns. The '88 Calgary Olympics was a defining moment for her teenage years. I've only heard it about a bajillion times how she got screwed over handing the torch off by another student.
