That takes me back...

It was Summer, in Argolis, when I read that Roubanis' record of 4.50m was broken by 10cm by an athlete named Christos Papanikolaou...

Hard to believe that was almost 40 years ago! :blink:

The great Christos Papanikolaou, the first pole vaulter to break the 18 feet 5.49 meters) barrier. Not that Roubanis was not great, as his bronze medal at the Melbourne Olympics proves it.
