I was so looking forward to watching the event on TV. If by some off chance it gets moved to Long Beach, Ca. I might even take a trip down there to see it in person.

It looks like Montreal didn't pull it out. FINA pulled the competition out of Canada...see swiminfo.com for details. They are taking bids for an alternative site. Some possibilities floating around include Athens, Berlin or Munich, or Rio. Long Beach continues to be mentioned, but it sounds like there's no way they would put in a bid. I wonder if it will happen at all. I would think you'd have to be crazy to bid on this championship with such short notice.
