Can LA handle the Olympics and World Cup after the wildfires? | LA Times Today

Southern California faces a long and difficult recovery from the wildfires. On top of that, Los Angeles is scheduled to host some of the biggest sporting events in the world - the World Cup, the Super Bowl and the Summer Olympics - in the next few years. Some critics have already called for those events to be moved. Others say they will actually help speed up the rebuilding process. David Wharton covers the Olympics and other high profile sporting events for the LA Times and joined Lisa McRee with more.

The fire-ruined areas are nowhere near where the olympics are set to take place. And what are the chances we have another big fire during the couple of weeks of the olympics in 2028? This is a nonsense debate.

Sure, just move everything to Mar a Lago.

right now no country wants to host olympic because it's not profitable, most of the money go to the federation rather than the host country. on the other side, i think the football world cup still in demand for hosting it.
