There must be some benefits to these big "legacy" events.

Yes and it happens (STAMPEDE) every year. Generates money for business every year for $$$$$$$$$$ dollars. So your Olympics after 30 yrs (1988) of not being here how much has it generated? And what will it generate after it's gone? Let some other sucker city have it. Some of the best winter athletes in the world come from Finland Switzerland and countless other European countries. Why are they not in the running for host. Smarter with they're $$$$$$$$$$$ I guess. Way cheaper to send athletes to compete. Let's put some of that money into our athletic training and send them.
