Well, there was the blatant racist shit that they didn't mention in the post but was there in reality. Also, it makes the US look like dolts. Not exactly patriotic, lol.

Na, man. This whole story is fire.

First new Olympics outside of Europe held in... St. Louis? In the summer? Ick.

Things were such a mess that only 12 nations showed up.

First ever use of the 3 medal system (gold, silver, bronze).

Tug of War was a legit Olympic sport.

The "Racist Shit" was the incomprehensibly terrible human zoo stuff. Bonus that an Indian Boarding School girls basketball team apparently played. And then they had competitions like "baseball throwing" for the human zoo folks.

This isn't even worth a movie. A whole season of 6 or 8 one-hour episodes. Easily.
