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 a couple (obviously a slight British slant)
Linford Christie 's Gold in the 100m in Barcelona
Daley Thompson 2nd consecutive Gold in the Decathlon. (He's from my home town).
Eddie the Eagle. We knew he'd not do well but we loved him for "having a go."
Other than that....anytime an underdog upsets the odds.
