Sometimes, the unwieldy nature of the Olympics forces events to be held—gasp!—outside the host city.
Soccer, for instance, is usually scattered around the host country—the Paris Olympics will include matches in Bordeaux, Marseille, Nantes and other cities. The Los Angeles Olympics in 2028 will include events in Oklahoma City. Heck, the 2026 Winter Olympics will have two host cities—Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.
