Greek Olympics

The Greeks decided to invent something that involved entertainment. Everyone thought the Greeks needed more entertainment. So the Greeks decided to invent the Olympic games. In the Olympic games, the Greeks did events like shot put, triple jump and wrestling. Those were the top three most popular events.

In Ancient Greece all the Olympic contenders were men and they also were naked because the Olympic games were usually held in the summer.

The Olympic games were usually played in a large outdoor courtyard with nine or ten sets of bleachers and about 1000-3000 people attended the games as spectators each year.

The first Olympic games was in Olympia which is where the games got its name from.
