Could it be that the third time is a charm?
Today, city council voted to assemble a staff report on purusing a bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics. This would be their third attempt since 1996 where they lost the hosting gig to Atlanta.
The motion, which was put forward by Councillor Minnan-Wong, could kill hopes of bidding for the 2025 World Expo.
Minnan-Wong said that the mayor wants to look into the pros and cons of pursuing 2024 games before making any decisions.
