* The Ancient Olympic Games were held by the Greeks to honor there God, Zeus. They began in 776 B.C. and lasted until 393 A.C. Then they were banned by a Christian Emperor because of their religion, polythesim, they worshiped many gods.
* There were no Olympics for 1503 years, until a Frenchman went on vacation to Greece and loved the idea of the Olympics. He believed that people should be both physically and mentally strong, as he was a teacher. That was the beginning of the adventure to bring us the Modern Olympics...........Probably more than you wanted to know.
