Most what !
My God.Incredible
Try Munich when the eastern bloc reigned supreme with the mighty but small East German nation excelling.
Remember Marita Koch. Her 1985 400meter WR still stands .Nobody gotten close.
The Czech “girl” Kratochviilova and her powering away from those not as doped .
Then consider the swimming events. Rather than me waste my dross on you,re@d up on what Sharron Davies writes about her era of swimmin* and the ludicrously open doping cheating around.

Remember the Montreal Games ,? No.
the Lasse Viren golds made possible by blood transfusions

Every field event from 1960 in Rome has been corrupt.

Poll: Christmas. Enjoyable or not

The article states most corrupted much different from the most corrupt.

The article cites 1,000 Russian athletes. Try looking up some of the Eastern block drug taking in the 70s and 80s.

That should answer Jim.
Anyone at all of 70 yrs of age knows how evil and corrupt mother Russia was and her control over the east of Europe.
I avoided bringing up the Gymnastic girls as even now it is so upsetting but check out Nadia Comaneci and how she was groomed and used to glorify socialism .

I could of course give you Berlin in 1936, Hitler removed all the Romani people from Berlin to a concentration camp to clean up Berlin for the games. He also tried to ban any Jewish athletes, was told he could not so allowed one token Jew in the German team.
I think Hitler's attempt to use the games to promote his own ideas about race makes 1936 the most corrupt games.

Lived in a shared house at the time, Sandy who lived with us had no interest in sport, she sat down to watch the 100m final as we were all watching and said that bloke Johnson is on something!
