Pull this out of a hobby box on Black Friday last year!

Bob Beamon is an American former track and field athlete best known for his record-shattering long jump at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics. On October 18, 1968, Beamon jumped 8.90 meters (29 feet, 2.5 inches), breaking the previous world record by an astonishing 55 cm (21.75 inches). His jump was so far beyond expectations that the optical measuring device at the stadium couldn’t register it, and officials had to use a manual steel tape to confirm the distance.
Beamon’s record stood for nearly 23 years until Mike Powell broke it in 1991. His achievement gave rise to the term “Beamonesque,” used to describe performances that exceed all expectations.

Hoping Gabby Thomas can become the first American woman to win the 200m Final since Allyson Felix did it at London 2012! I have a couple of Olympic cards but this one is probably my favorite.

Pretty funny move from Noah Lyles- whipped out a Yu-Gi-Oh Blue-Eyes White Dragon card before his race at the US Olympic Trials.

Think it helped him run faster? Seems like he did well.

Up at Heritage for auction. This is so epic on many levels. His quote was in itself amazing:
“Although I wasn't invited to shake hands with Hitler, I wasn't invited to the White House to shake hands with the President either."

It is estimated to go $10k+, but my sense given the interest in Type 1, this will likely go above it easily.
