Where is the Yankee Stadium located? — Sports Trivia
Did you know that the ancient Olympic Games were held at the Olympia Stadium in Greece, which dates back to 776 BC?
This historic site is not just any sports venue; it’s considered the birthplace of the Olympics. The stadium could accommodate around 45,000 spectators, a remarkable feat considering the engineering limitations of the time.
Olympia also featured a sacred grove called the Altis, dedicated to Zeus, which included temples, altars, and statues. Today, Olympia is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its ruins offer a fascinating glimpse into the origins of competitive sports and ancient Greek culture.

When you are guessing the correct answer you really aren’t reading and remembering what you just read.
