olympic memory from 1988 in seoul, south korea. the summer games here will be remembered for the ben johnson scandal. he went from hero to zero in a couple of days. the hero part - he won the 100 metre dash in at that time a world record of 9.79 seconds. the zero - 2 to 3 days later it was found that he had annabolic steriods in him, which was a banned substance. his gold medal was taken away fron him and the world record was no more. that overshadowed everything good that happened. quite the memory for the wrong reason.
