aandl   10 #1 Posted June 23, 2012 With the Olympic torch arriving in sheffield I thought it may be interesting to post favourite Olympic moments.  My first memory of the Olymics was the Munich Olympics in 1972 when Olga Korbut brought gymnastics alight with her floor routine and balance on the beam.  At the same Mark Spitz' seven gold medals in the pool was remarkable.

It was really quite emotional to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
