RE: Today in History: Mark Spitz wins 7 gold medals at Olympics

in #history5 years ago

When I first started reading your article I was saying to myself wait, what about Phelps. I seriously didn't know how many he had won. He is a freaking machine though. I wasn't alive either, but I would imagine Spitz was all over the Wheatie's boxes back then!

Sort:  

yeah, there is a good chance he was the Wheaties dude for a year or so. haha. I hated that cereal but we still bought it for the michael jordan posters when i was a kid.
