For the curious: Denver was awarded the '76 Winter games in 1970 by the IOC. In 1972, Colorado voters rejected the plan to fund the games and Denver withdrew. The IOC eventually chose Innsbruck, a former host city that was not even in the running for 1976 originally.

I always thought Tim Allen was from the other D city that used to have over a million more people than Denver and has now plummeted: Detroit.

Is Denver really so flat that its elevation is 5,280 feet throughout? I think not.
