With the latest tension with Russia and Georgia, the IOC members held a meeting in Beijing on the fate of the Sochi 2014 winter games. Speculation is that it may be re-assigned to another city.

If that were to happen, the previous host cities have contingencies to host the games. They would have to maintain their venues over a period of time and be at the ready. The IOC would need to make a decision b/c the 2014 winter games are 5 1/2 years away.

If they were to be re-assigned, It would probably go to Nagano (1998) or Salt Lake City (2002). So, Salt Lake City, get ready! You have a 50/50 chance of hosting the Winter Olympics again!
