The Summer and Winter Olympics were held every four years (in the same year) from 1924 - 1992, but in 1988 it was decided that the Winter Olympics should be held inbetween Summer Olympics, so the next Winter Olympics after Albertville in 1992 was Lillehammer in 1994.

there are countries that can participate in winter sports nearly all year round. Unlike most other countries that only compete in the summer olympics.\n\nIn those winter counries, skiing (downhill and cross-country), shooting, and others are done daily to survive. In other words, some in those northern counthern ski to an from work and to an from school.\n\nWhy, because they can... they have the climate.

Obviously this way, with the Summer and Winter Olympics not falling in the same year, it keeps people talking about it more often. And when they were both in the same year, I think it was easier to overlook Winter, since the Summer Olympics are more popular.

Agreeing with everyone else, \n\nNo.....1976 and 1980 were.\n\nKeep in mind that Leap Years are always end in even numbers and they do come every 4 years. \n\nAnother way to remember them is if you are a citizen of the United States, all Presidential elections are held in Leap years....I don't know if that was planned but it just happens to be.  \n\nAlso all SUMMER Olympics are held during Leap years...The Winter ones used to be held with them but that has changed.  Winter Olympics now follow 2 years after the Summer ones.\n\nAnother way to remember is that if you are a fan of Chinese Astrology, each Leap Year is either the sign of the Rat, Dragon or the Monkey.\n\nI know because I was born in a Leap Year......\n\n:)\nPeace!

There's no 2008 world cup. This championship is held every 4 years (same frequency as the Olympic Games but with a 2-year difference). After this year's cup, the next one will be in 2010.
