The problem is that most people in Norway - do not want to have Olympic games - on the ground that IOC have some outrageous demands for the Olympic games... If they rescind their outrageous demands - it might be a different tone to it - but as it is - most people in Norway have no stomage for the estimated 5.4 billion NRK for the games - and it is rumored it would be at least a couple of billions more expensive - as the Lillehammer games in 1994 was rather on the expensive side - and then we had the good fortune of having a extremely great winter - with a lot of snow... A few years before it was not a single snow flake in sight at Lillehammer - but right before OL - the snow just started to flow - and it continued true the OL - and most of the winter - and it was rather cold too - when I was at Lillehammer - in the morning it was 18 below C - midday it was just between 5 and 10 below C - almost warm with other means....
And of course - it pissed off the swedish - who had to envy us our good luck - and our athlets who was rather splendid doing their job - we might not won all the gold medals in 1994 - but we beat the sweedes hard and low 
(Norway and Sweden have a friendly banting between us - who have repleased war, and it is a saying - we might not win - but as long as we beat Sweden, then most pepole is happy)
