You are right. Most of the funding will fall back on the state of the host city.

This is why Texas and New York have the best chance to host the Olympics next. If it's Texas, you may see a shared deal between Houston and the surrounding areas.

Louisiana (or Illinois) doesn't have as much leverage....although I think a place like New Orleans, Kansas City, St Louis, Memphis, or another city near a state border may have a better shot if they can cooperate with said neighboring state(s).

Again, hard to overcome New York's obvious advantage there too.

This is the main reason why I don't want the Olympics to ever be hosted in Louisiana. New Orleans would be a decent option and is probably a fair contender as far as American cities go. In the next decade or two, amenities would be sufficient enough if the economy keeps going in the same direction.

 

Chicago proper borders Indiana and Chicagoland stretches to the Wisconsin state line.
