ChicagoFan90 0 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 The IOC drew lots today to pick the presentation order of the 2016 bid cities. The order is as follows: 1.) Chicago (USA) 2.) Prague (Czech Republic) 3.) Tokyo (Japan) 4.) Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) 5.) Baku (Azerbaijan) 6.) Doha (Qatar) 7.) Madrid (Spain) It reminds me of the 2012 lot, with the US bid early, and Madrid last again. The IOC also released the schedule for the 2018 bids...it really has been a busy day for the 2016 bids!!

baron-pierreIV 1700 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 They did this even before narrowing it down to the Short List? I don't get that. So an alphabetical listing isn't random enough? Link to post Share on other sites
ChicagoFan90 0 Posted December 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 They did this even before narrowing it down to the Short List? Yeah...all they'll do is remove any cities eliminated in June, and keep the order as is...I think the IOC did that for the 2012 race as well. Link to post Share on other sites

baron-pierreIV 1700 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 They also drew lots for the 2014 race and Sochi was first, so Chicago... Which it would still be after the Short List is put out. So the shortened list would be: 1.) Chicago (USA) 2.) Tokyo (Japan) 3.) Doha (Qatar) or Rio (Brazil) 4.) Madrid (Spain) Link to post Share on other sites

olympian 4 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 does anyone have the presentation order for 2004 and 2006? Link to post Share on other sites
cfm Jeremie 2 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 2000: Berlin, Sydney, Manchester, Beijing, Istanbul 2004: Stockholm, Cape Town, Athens, Buenos Aires, Roma 2006: Klagenfurt, Zakopane, Helsinki, Sion, Poprad Tatry, Torino (although for 2006, the vote took place the day following the day for presentations -i.e. a lot of things might have happened during the night) I think for 2002 the order was Sion, Salt Lake City, Ostersund, Quebec. Quite frankly, I don't think that the presentation order is that important in determining the final outcome. Link to post Share on other sites
Athan 47 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 in the past 2 summer olympics bidding the city who presented fourth won. will it be the same? If there are only four candidate cities, then Madrid would win Link to post Share on other sites
olympian 4 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 i'm sort of applying the beauty pageant theory here, which is in both Miss World and Miss Universe a girl who happens to be standing on the right side wins (which coincinedally has occcured a lot during the last few years), which in the Summer Olympics happens to be the city presenting fourth and the Winter Olympics, the city presenting 1st wins. though that just started happening only in 2001, so it may or may not happen.
