ICYMI: Looking back at when Minneapolis bid for the 1996 #Olympics — and it wasn't totally outrageous.
“This will put us on the map internationally,” Gov. Rudy Perpich said.

Fans could have watched archery at Fort Snelling, gymnastics at the St. Paul Civic Center, boxing at the Met Center, and road cycling along Hwy. 12 from Minneapolis to Delano. racketmn.com/how-close-was-m…
The Minneapolis bid — its fifth try at getting an #Olympics — had 26 of 27 venues lined up, backing from six local businesses, and the weight of Gov. Perpich behind it.
“There was a certain level of seriousness that we felt it could happen,” form Strib reporter Jay Weiner says

Just going on record to say that "redemption tour" is a flawed and reductive narrative for the U.S. women's gymnastics team. That's all!

💯. First time in more than 50 years #StarTribune doesn’t have a reporter at the #OlympicGames.
Such a bummer that the Star Tribune didn’t send one reporter to Paris to cover Minnesota’s athletes. @BlountStrib should be there.
Nothing more 2024 than the Saudi Arabia delegation being blocked by their social media manager taking a video on her phone.

The U.S. men's team was just introduced on the floor at #USAGTrials24, including alternate Khoi Young. Notably absent is the other alternate, Shane Wiskus.
Devastating — after the performance of his life, in front of his home crowd, Shane Wiskus misses out on the Olympic team. He's instead going to Paris as an alternate. #USAGTrials2024
Shi is at Target Center watching warm-ups from a suite with the men's Olympic team that was named last night. #USAGTrials24
ICYMI: Shilese Jones, a pre-meet favorite from Seattle, is out of #USAGTrials24 with a knee injury.
“She did everything right all quad to belong on the Olympic team,” her coach said. “It’s crushing to watch that fall away because of a fluke accident.”

The one thing in sports that never gets old is seeing an athlete realize their dream and qualify for the Olympics. We're a few minutes away from that happening for five men's gymnasts in Minneapolis. #USAGTrials24
