Beijing wins 2022 Olympic bid..Problem? No Sno

Beijing wins 2022 Olympic bid

Quote:
In a 137-page evaluation of the two bids, the IOC outlined several problems with a Beijing Winter Olympics. The most obvious: There's no snow.
Quote:
"Due to the lack of natural snow the ‘look’ of the venue may not be aesthetically pleasing either side of the ski run," the IOC admitted.

In related news, all the summer Olympians will be dead by then from drinking the water in Rio during the 2016 games.

That's nice, a few million dollars for fake snow or go somewhere it snows!

They make fake rice and fake eggs. I am sure they've got snow down pat.

The IOC couldn't give one dead rat ass less as long as they get their bribes and kickbacks. The most corrupt sporting organization on the planet. The lot of them should be tarred, feathered, and run out of town on a rail.
