OPINION

If the Olympic Games were here, It will provides a tremendous boost for the improvement of infrastructure in the city where the event is hosted, such as road facilities,new hotels for boarding and lodging, swimming pools,communication facilities. That too at the international standard, besides providing an impetus for the growth of sports..It also promotes tourism in the host country through which more foreign currency is earned too.

On the other hand, Some times the government may take over the lands of some private citizens for the mega event and so they get displaced from their area and Normal and routine life of the residents is affected.

All in all, I think the host country earns in millions by selling ticket sales for the events, telecast rights etc.
