What was the medal count for the US in 1996 in Atlanta? I gotta say, we had the best stuff. Truely the peak of USA in Olypics. Michael Johnson rocked the world.
Looked it up
USA had 101 total medals: 44 gold, 32 Silver, 25 Bronze
2nd was Russia at 63 medals...man we blew them away!!!
China had 50. They have doubled medal count since 1996.
Looked up further
