Did the creek Indians play basketball?

The Creek Indians, like many Indigenous tribes, had their own traditional games and sports, but basketball as we know it today was not part of their culture. Basketball was invented in 1891, long after the Creek people's traditional games were established. However, many Native American communities, including the Creek, have since embraced basketball and often participate in it today.


Where was 1990 winter Olympics?

Great question. In 1992, the Winter Olimpics were in Albertive, France. Also, in 1994, the winter games were held in Lillihammer, Norway. They have returned to the traditional four year time frame between games, since then. But, there were no winter games in 1990. Note: It used to be that the Summer and Winter Olympics were held in the same year since the start of the Winter Olympics in 1924. At first the same country that hosted the Summer Games also hosted the Winter Games; this was France in 1924 (Winter Games in Chamonix; Summer Games in Paris). In 1928 this had changed, with the Winter Games being held in St. Moritz (Switzerland) and the Summer Games in Amsterdam (Netherlands). It wasn't until after the 1992 Games (the XXVth Summer Games in Barcelona, Spain and the XVIth Winter Games in Albertville, France) that the IOC decided to split them up. The Summer Games stayed on their original quadrennial schedule, with the Games of the XXVIth Olympiad being held in Atlanta (USA) in 1996; but the next Winter Olympics were moved up two years to 1994 with the XVIIth Winter Games being held in Lillehammer, Norway. From that point on the Winter Games again started observing the traditional four-year gap between Games.
