The Australian state of Victoria said Tuesday it was pulling out of hosting the 2026 Commonwealth Games citing the cost which it said had ballooned to at least $4.1 billion -- throwing the whole tournament into doubt.
Yeah, I guess I meant more geographical diverse. They were going regional but still in similar areas anda lot of the cost came from infrastructure to handle large numbers of people, but individual, dispersed towns I assume could more easily handle smaller influxes.
What smaller towns have world class sporting facilities though?
You arent going to be holding world class games of footy at the local school field. You arent going to build a world class venue in a small town because after the event it would go unused. At least the huge multipurpose venues in cities get used year round after the initial event.
