Los Angeles 2024 Olympic bid organizers called the city the western capital of the U.S., the northern capital of Latin America and the eastern capital of the Pacific Rim in a promotional video published Monday.
Los Angeles is bidding against Budapest, Hamburg, Paris, Rome and possibly Toronto for the 2024 Olympics. The deadline to submit a bid is Tuesday, and eyes are on Toronto officials to see if Canada’s largest city will bid.
International Olympic Committee members will vote to choose the host city in 2017.
