Have Olympics fever? Tape-delayed London games not cooling it? Perhaps 1984 M&M’s trading cards will.

July 29, 2012

Shouldn’t Muhammad Ali’s card be a Cassius Clay card? Wasn’t he Cassius Clay at the 1960 Rome games? How does that work? “Clay-Liston” is often called “Ali-Liston,” so I suppose retroactive name-changes are okay, but this trips some obsessive-compulsive wire. That’s my challenge, I guess.

Anyway, if you get that time machine working, go back and time and scarf down M&M’s, a noted Olympic training nutritional staple. (Feel free to pair it with another venerable Olympic sponsor, McDonald’s.) Get your hands on those trading cards and stare at Mike Eruzione to your heart’s content.
