I remember the 1960 Rome Olympics because the event was the first to be televised world-wide.
Specifically, my favorite moments were Wilma Rudolph of the USA winning the 100m gold, (then) Cassius Clay taking the gold in boxing. More than those two, I will always remember Ethiopian Marathon Runner Abebe Bikila winning while running the race barefoot.
