Congrats to former F1 driver Alex Zanardi

Racing at the Olympic Stadium in Rio held a special meaning for the 49-year-old Zanardi. Rio is where he secured his first pole position in 1996.

''When it was announced that the Olympic Stadium was going to be built there I thought, 'Wow, I've always loved that place and been super fast there,''' Zanardi said. ''But for some reason or another I never managed to win a race, so maybe it is time to go back to Rio and win something and put that right.''

Rio Paralympics 2016: Alex Zanardi wins gold on eve of 15-year crash anniversary

Former F1 driver, Indy 500 winner and American Open Wheel champ who lost both his legs in horrendous crash the weekend after 9/11.



Hasn't necessarily slowed him down, though. Do not bet against "Zig Zag" Zanardi.

I wonder if the cocaine helped his pole vault ... that night

Shawn Barber tested positive for cocaine before Rio Olympics | Toronto Star

Barber was allowed to compete because his sport court hearing determined that he inadvertently ingested the banned substance during a tryst with a woman that he found on Craigslist in Edmonton the night before he competed at the Canadian Olympic trials.

No idea who this is but he must've been horny as shit if he was browsing the Edmonton CL ads for some trim.

I'm curious about the courtroom dialogue:

Court Member: "Mr. Barber, you understand you are here today due to a positive test?"
Barber: "I don't understand it - I don't do drugs"
Court Member: "Then how do you explain your positive test?"
Barber: I was french kissing a prostitute the night before"
Court Member: awkward pause
