isleseeya Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Austrailia, Greece, and Great Britian have competed in all the summer Olympic games. Sometimes France is included in that list, and sometimes not. I looked it up because I couldn't believe that someone would say Big John was incorrect on something. LOL I agree ...taking on BJ is a losing proposition My aplogies BJ ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimC Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) Isle's book is so super wrong. Switzerland has sent athletes to compete in every Games since it first partipated at the Olympic Games at the inaugural 1896 Games. Switzerland boycotted the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, but the equestrian events for those Games were held in Stockholm, Sweden earlier that year, where the Swiss dressage team won a bronze medal. Oh my What three countries have competed in every modern Olympic games? In: Olympics [Edit] Australia, Switzerland, France, Great Britain and Greece have been represented at all Summer Olympics. France, Great Britain and Switzerland are the only countries to participate at every Winter Olympics. So three countries have been to every Olympics in the modern era - France, Great Britain and Switzerland.

Big John Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) time to study before i post this again ..either that or do it when BJ goes on vacation (if ever ) Work is "cutting costs" and will not allow vacation time in the forseeable future as one of the measures. :gulp: Edited September 18, 2008 by Big John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Country Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Where is some more semi-accurate trivia questions? Okay, let's try this one: What quarterback led his team to a 15-13-1 record in Division II but was a first round pick...a high first rounder?
