    I was a drummer in the opening ceremonies-- had two guys carrying the green Taiko drum I was playing on the field. Wore one of those pringle outfits. We waited with John Williams at every rehearsal and on the big day. Great guy. He teased me about having my music on a transparency taped to my drum-- said "I wrote that one!!" It was hot as blazes and a once in a lifetime memory.

      For me it was Lillehammer '94. Ever since then, the olympics denote a sort of a 'benchmark' of my life. "Another Olympics...time sure flies".
      It kinda hit me when I reached the point where I realised that I am older than most competitors.

      Atlanta's organizers had said it themselves that they are not a world-famous metropolis, nor were they pretending to be one for the Olympics. Atlanta was all about Southern Hospitality, being genuine, and showcasing a part of America to the world not often talked about in pop culture. I think the 1996 Olympics really shines in its warmth and energy, something that many successor games lack despite being bigger and more flashy.

    I wish that I was able to grow up in the 90s and experience this. Everyone says the 80s and 90s were a great time to be alive. My mom used to live in Atlanta and we go every year. I watch the Olympics on TH-cam from many years and the 1996 Olympics are my favorite by far. The opening ceremony was so amazing and everyone looked so happy. I wish the world was as happy as it was then. I also love the gala closing ceremony with the gymnasts. America seemed so United back then and i hope it will be soon again for the 2028 LA Olympics!!
