Pin #52: San Francisco Olympic Bid Pin
This is one of the coolest pins in my collection. It is an Olympic Bid pin. San Francisco was one of the cities in the running to represent the United States in their bid for the 2012 Summer Olympics. First, the cities had to win the bid from the U.S. Olympic Committee. This is one of the bid pins for San Francisco. I have another one for New York that will be featured at a later date. Obviously, neither city ended up hosting the Olympics. I bought them during a trip to NBC Studios in New York in 2004. It was my first trip to Rockefeller Center, also. These pins were a pleasant surprise because they're kind of unique. You don't see them very often. Plus, it's just a cool looking pin.
