What is your favorite memory.The most amazing race I ever saw was the 200 Breaststroke in the 1968 Olympics. The only gold medal won by a Mexican at the Games Was by Felipe Munoz. Every time he breathed the crowd screamed MEXICO, I have never experienced such passion for a swimming event,(I only saw it on T.V. I can't imagine what it was like in person.)

I have never understood how that guy qualified for the Olympics.
Yeah, I believe they instituted the 'A' and 'B' Olympic time standards so only good athletes make it now. They didn't then.
