Yeah, I really wish they got the 2016 Olympics, yes there is the issue of that giant unnecessary stadium in Washington Park, but the rest of the plans would have been amazing and helped to bring Chicago back to its place as a world city
Honestly what the 2016 Olympics did to South America's prestige even just for a moment already shows that, the thing is, people not from the United States and Europe (and Japan) deserve to hav nice things too
That’s fair, Rio did really deserve the Olympics, I just was Blinded to that by my obsession with Chicago
