Unfortunately, Rio is even worse than Chicago on crime. Still, I think IOC should give it to Rio. I honestly can’t remember an Olympics Games being held in South America in my (long) lifetime.

The Olympics have never been held in South America, nor Africa.

I don’t think any Olympics ever has....Mexico City in 1968 was closest...
