This Week’s Game — February 17-21

Cities of Gold

Here’s our inside track at the Olympics. For each day this week, we started with the name of a city in which the Winter Olympics have been held. Then we hid it in a sentence, with spaces added as necessary. The answer spans at least two words in the sentence and starts and ends in the middle of words. The day’s clue gives the sentence with a torch in place of the city name.

Example:

I didn’t qualify for the luge finals after my qualifying time was tow.

Answer:

What to Submit:

Submit the city (as “Oslo” in the example) for your answer.
