Mark Spitz Seventh Gold

September 4, 1972
American swimmer Mark Spitz became the first athlete to win seven Olympic gold medals on this date .

For his all of his effort, he is forced to walk around in a damp Speedo for years – the constant tinea cruris was horrible. You would have thought he would have become the spokesperson for ACME Medicated Groin Poultice.
