1936 The Olympic Games open in Berlin. The opening ceremonies are presided over by Adolf Hitler.

1992 Eric Griffin, a two-time world champion at 106 pounds, loses to Rafael Lozano of Spain under the new electronic scoring system used at the Summer Olympics, even though all five judges credit him with more blows than his opponent as did five jury members used as a backup in case the computer failed.

1996 Michael Johnson wins Olympic gold in the 200 meters in a record 19.32 seconds, becoming the first male Olympian to win the 200 and 400 in a single games. Dan O Brien wins gold in the decathlon, four years after failing to make the U.S. Olympic team.
