Your own Games' slogan

[baron-pierreIV 1691]

OK, GB'ders, lately the Olympic Games adopt a new (marketing) theme as in:

Atlanta '96 - the Centennial Games

Sydney - Games of the New Millenium

Salt Lake - Light the Fire Within

Athens - Welcome Home

Torino - Passion Lives Here.

So, if YOU were to create the theme for YOUR own Games, what would it be?  ANd name your country in case the theme becomes more relevant with us knowing what country it's playing in.  The slogan, hypothetically, must display Olympism and universal themes of fair sportsmanship and brotherhood, and all that.  Or not.

OK, just off the top of my head.  I'll start.  I may come back later with a better one.

Fort Knox 2016 - Gimme dat Gold!  

Reno-Tahoe 2022 - "Games of Chance and Beauty"

[LA84 6]

New Orleans 2016

I already used this one during one of the simulation bid contest awhile back.  I'd figured this would be a good place to bring it back...

Philadelphia 2016:  The Games of Brotherly Love

...a possible slogan if they do ever get these games.

Chicago 2016 - Pop...Six...Squish...Uh-Uh...Cicero...Lipschitz!

Paris 2024 - We STILL Love The Games!

This is funny since I had actually thought about that Baron...

I  think new kinds of slogans have to be created. We should link the olympics with other values than fair-play, sport or peace. They're outdated. For the bids I defend (Salzburg 2014, Annecy 2018 ) the slogans would be more like:

Salzburg 2014: "An enchanting swirl"

and

Annecy 2018: "Let the dream begin"

Oh and maybe, Montreal 2020: "Even losers can have the games"

:laughlong:

Sounds too gay for the Olympics.. slogan for the gay games, perhaps?

No not THAT Brotherly Love! Looks like you've been watching "Brokeback Mountain" too many times!

[Sir Rols 1899]

How about recycling the Brotherly Love slogan for a San Francisco games,  then?

[NYCD 2012 3]

Beijing 2008 - Homes of Giant Pandas Destroyed

Chicago 2040 - Home of Deep Dish Pizza

Singapore 2064 - Games in the Tropics

[baron-pierreIV 1691]

How about recycling the Brotherly Love slogan for a San Francisco games,  then?

Well, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (or Perpetual Pain in the Ass, as I call them) and the Dykes on Bikes would protest strongly.  Where is the EO?   "Games of Sibling Love" I think is just too...taboo!  No, leave it in its uncorrupted form to Philly.  

SF would be "Games of Flower Power"
