Well the Beijing Bonanza gets underway today if anyone can see through the smog.

Since it's quiet in the office I thought I'd start a topical quiz. Poster of correct answer gets to ask next question - no googling for answers please so let's make the questions answerable for non anoraks please!

1984 Los Angeles

Who did Zola Budd trip up in the 5000 metres final?

I love the olympics, try and watch as much as possible. I remember most random things and if i had been alive in 1984 then i'd probably know the answer to that.

How was he? Pretty made up I'd imagine! If you mean who was he I can picture the guy but the name escapes me!

Wasn't it someone Broad? I could Google it but that'd be cheating. I think it's something like that. Can't remember the first name.
