Who remembers this?

Here's the back story for those that don't know. This was right after the 96 Olympics where Bailey had won the 100m and Johnson had set the world record at 200m.

Both were squabbling about who deserved the title of worlds fastest man. Usually it always went to the 100m winner.

They agreed to a race at 150m to settle it.

I was big into track and field at the time and I thought this was absolutely the coolest thing ever.

Personally, I think Johnson faked the injury because he was getting smoked. What do u guys think

Lol awesome trip down memory lane @MMA'S Worst Gambler Bailey wins with or with out the"injury" taking place. The last thing Canada is known for is track and field so this was our moment. Well that and Ben Johnson getting getting his medal taken away and given to the American who also had a banned substance.
