Today (Sunday) we celebrate two birthdays. Both people graduated from the same college. Both athletes are no longer alive. Both men won a total of seven Olympic gold medals.
Athlete "A" was born 97 years ago this day while athlete "B" was born 76 years ago today. Both set world records during their track and field careers.
Athlete "A" won all his gold medals in one Olympic Games while athlete "B" won his gold medals in two Olympic Games.
Athlete "B" died about eight months ago and was once on the cover of Sports Illustrated. You might know his nickname, "Jeep".
Athlete "A" has the same initials as the founder of Georgia (the U.S. state). Athlete "B" has the same initials as the U.S. naval officer who directed the defeat of the Spanish navy in the Philippines in 1898.
Both men have been mentioned many times in our TFN group. Can you name these Olympic champions born on the same day some 21 years apart?
