SALT LAKE CITY — The brightest legacy of the 2002 Winter Olympics held in Salt Lake City was fired up early Wednesday after the city was awarded the 2034 Games, and it will continue to do so during the decade-long build until the world arrives.For 16 days and nights during Utah 's first turn at hosting the Games, the cauldron that held the Olympic flame stood tall over Rice-Eccles Stadium on the campus of the University of Utah .
Originally, the cauldron sat atop the south end of the stadium before it was moved to a park that was just outside. When the south stands of Rice-Eccles were expanded in 2020, the flame was on the move again. So in 2021, at a cost of about $2 million, the cauldron was moved to its current location in a plaza where it can be accessed by all.Unlike in 2002, it doesn't take the Miracle on Ice hockey team to light the gas-fueled flame.
