Our City Should Host the Olympics
by Alexandra Johnson
1. If the city is really populated, wouldn't that mean that there would be a hard time getting there, moving from place to place, and even driving? Well, I sure think it does. I've been to New York, the number 1 largest city in the US and there is too much traffic. You can't get down the block in 10 minutes!

San Antonio is the 7th most populated city in the USA and the 2nd most populated city in Texas. A well known city is a good city to host the olympics in and San Antonio is just that.

8. I think that our city should host the Olympics here because we have the Tower of the Americas which was apart of the world fair in 1968.
