Sadly, not yet. But if I were to go, as chilly a prospect as it may be, I would have to choose the Winter Olympics. Gotta love that figure skating!

No.  The last time they were in the same year was 1992.  The winter olympics was held again in 1994, then it resumed it's usual every 4 year pattern.

The Winter Olympics have indeed only been hosted by Northern Hemisphere countries, but the Summer Games have been south of the equator twice. 1956 Melbourne and 2000 Sydney.

I used to watch the Olympics when I was a little kid, but now I find them quite boring.  \n\nIt just doesn't interest me at all.  I suppose I would rather see the nations of the world get together to try to figure out our problems, then seeing a bunch of people ice skating.  \n\nHowever, for some people it is entertaining and it makes their lives better, and that is great.  It just doesn't do that for me.

Much prefer the summer olympics... but have been watching certain events (i.e. hockey, skeleton, speed skating)

Chamonix 1924 Winter Olympics hosted by France. France won one bronze in the Pairs Figure Skating competition.\nSt. Moritz 1928 Winter Olympics hosted by Switzerland. Switzerland won one bronze in the Ice Hockey competition.

If you base the performance on medals won, the best performing nation in Modern Olympic history is the USA. \n\nThe  link shows the total medals won by nation, for both the Summer & Winter games.

Apparently triathlons only take place during the Olympics.  thanks Mike...  Yahoo! has yet to add many sports to the list.  Skate/Snow boarding, Tri's, running.  None of these seem to have made.  But curling and snookering seem to have a large fan base.  Come on Yahoo! guys, think!!!!

Torino and Turin are one and the same. The XXth Winter Olympics are organised by the Italians and in Italian, Turin in Torino. Still not convinced? Okay, look here (and then be amazed)

I don't think there were games that particular year. If you mean the 1st one in 1896 that was in Athens.  Hope this helps! \n\n\n\n\nOlympic Summer Games:\n\n \nAthens 1896\nParis 1900\nSt. Louis 1904\nLondon 1908\nStockholm 1912\nAntwerp 1920\nParis 1924\nAmsterdam 1928\n   Los Angeles 1932\nBerlin 1936\nLondon 1948\nHelsinki 1952\nMelbourne 1956\nRome 1960\nTokyo 1964\nMexico City 1968\n   Munich 1972\nMontreal 1976\nMoscow 1980\nLos Angeles 1984\nSeoul 1988\nBarcelona 1992\nAtlanta 1996\nSydney 2000\nAthens 2004 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOlympic Winter Games:\n\n \nChamonix 1924\nSt. Moritz 1928\nLake Placid 1932\nGarmisch-\nPartenkirchen 1936\nSt. Moritz 1948\nOslo 1952\n   Cortina d'Ampezzo 1956\nSquaw Valley 1960\nInnsbruck 1964\nGrenoble 1968\nSapporo 1972\nInnsbruck 1976\nLake Placid 1980\n   Sarajevo 1984\nCalgary 1988\nAlbertville 1992\nLillehammer 1994\nNagano 1998\nSalt Lake City 2002 Torino 2006

1992 marked the last time that the Winter and Summer Olympics were held in the same year... Albertville, France for Winter and Barcelona, Spain for Summer.  \n\nTwo years later in 1994, the Winter Olympics appeared in Lillehammer, Norway... and then every four years after that (1998- Nagano, Japan; 2002- Salt Lake City, USA; 2006-Torino, Italy; 2010- Vancouver, Canada). \n\nIn 1996, the Summer Olympics appeared in Atlanta, USA... and then every four years after that (2000- Sydney, Australia; 2004- Athens, Greece; 2008- Beijing, China).\n\nSo, if you just watch the Winter or just watch the Summer... then you get a veiwing every four years.  However, you do have the opportunity to watch an Olympic Game every two years.

Well, I don't think SLC could hold a Summer Olympics, but only because they already hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics.  I may be wrong, but isn't a city only allowed one Olympics? I think it would be unfair.

Absolutely.  Haven't you seen the olympics?
