Top 3 Disciplines in the Olympics
You have to agree, whenever the Olympics comes around — Summer Olympics, that is — the most watched events are the following:
-
Aquatics [Swimming, Diving]
Athletics
Gymnastics
They also happen to have the most events under each discipline, ergo, more gold medals that’s up for grabs. Honestly, whenever I think about the Olympics, I always picture track athletes. Hmmm.
Also, I feel that they hold a kind of prestige over the other disciplines. I mean, can you name one, apart from the three mentioned, that hollywood made a movie out of? Lame argument, I know, but I reckon it’s a good gauge of its popularity, don’t you think?
Perhaps I’m wrong, however, we won’t know unless you tell me otherwise, eh?

[…] Like I said before, that’s probably why whenever the subject of the Olympics comes up, the image of track athletes come to mind. […]
