Los Angeles gears up to host 2028 Olympics • FRANCE 24 English

It’s Los Angeles’ turn for the torch. The city, which got the 2028 games as a consolation prize when Paris was picked for 2024, plans to host the opening ceremony at two separate locations: the modern SoFi stadium and the hundred-year old coliseum. Organisers will rely entirely on already-existing venues while modernising and adapting them to various sports.

  1. I lived in and worked the Atlanta games in 1996.
    Yes, Atlanta traffic sucks on every day of the week that ends in Y. REAL BAD traffic.

    So of course that issue was upfront on everyone’s minds going into those 2 weeks. The media just nagged you like a woman night and day, over and over about traffic Armageddon’96!

    The roads were EMPTY those 2 weeks. Creepishly empty in fact.

    *glances at wife’s “honey do list” from 2015 and opens a fresh 🍺

  2. Cheating, Fraud, Manipulation and Robbery at its finest and all medals and prizes will only go to the Americans hahaha foreign nationals has little or 0% chances of winning. 😂😅

  3. There are very many homeless in California and the Governor has a strategic plan to condition the public to sweep all of the homeless out of sight and out of mind. Streets are also dirty in L.A.

  4. Wasserman says they’ll light the cauldron at Sofi. Thats just wrong, They should light the cauldron at the Coliseum — there’s literally the Olympic Cauldron from 1932 and 1984 there!! Don’t try and be so fkg different. Stick to fkg tradition. Light the cauldron at the Coliseum.

  5. cant wait to see the parade of homeless, drug addicts and migrants ….show the world what tolerance and diversity does to a city

  6. If such obvious cheating as the US Purple Face team is not punished, then I will never watch any Olympic Games again, because it has lost its meaning. Boycott the Los Angeles Olympics!

  7. This has disaster written ALL over it! It will be worse than Paris! France took everything and anything ugly, shoved it under the carpet! Paris did all it could to hide all the flaws. Athlete afraid to be band did not say much on camera but off camera they were furious! Hotel owners and restaurant due to blocking the streets lost thousands of $$$. The list is too long! Traffic in LA will be a live movie nightmare! But it’s Hollywood, you know how to cover up things…just like Paris✅

  8. In 1984, they didn't build an Olympic Village. The athletes stayed in the dormitories in the local universities.
    Hopefully they'll do that again and not do what Paris did with special beds and special food.

  9. Which country will win Gold in Cricket ??
    My prediction- India gold, Australia silver,Great Britain -Bronze and the fourth position as usual South Africa
