I remember the 1972 Olympics when Israeli olympians held hostage and later killed. It was terrible. I remember watching it on TV!

I really loved to watch the ice skating portion with my mom.

I remember being in the ER with a friend when Mary Lou was performing. The entire waiting room was riveted.

We always sit down as a family and watch the opening ceremonies.  It's a tradition.

I remember being young and seeing all the different competitions.  My parents watched them all.  As I got older I watch less.  Now that I am married to a sports fanatic I am watching everything. :-)
