Biography of Dr. Tom Waddell founder of the Gay Games (presentation 3:40 minutes)

No one involved with the first Gay Games — organisers, participants, supporters or spectators — knew quite what to expect beforehand, but the opening ceremony at Kezar Stadium on Saturday, 28 August, proved to be one of the most uplifting events in gay and lesbian history. That day marked the beginning of a week of spirited competition in 17 sports by about 1,350 athletes from 12 countries. Lives were changed, and it was clear the Gay Games would be held again.
