What does each color on the rings mean for the olympics??? Like blue, black, red, yellow, green...do you know???

[xlobo]

Just curious....

[OlympFan]

Stands for each of the continents, if I remember correctly...

[xlobo]

Is USA red or blue???

[OlympFan]

Found this one, popped up on Ask Yahoo:

According to the Olympic Charter, the five-ringed symbol "represents the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games." Baron Pierre de Coubertin conceived of both the symbol and the flag. Not coincidentally, Coubertin is the founder of the modern Olympic Movement. The Olympic Committee adopted the flag in 1914, and it was first flown at the 1920 Antwerp Games.

Do you know which continent each is???

[OlympFan]

No, but found this, which still doesn't completely explain it:

While the charter isn't explicit, many believe that the colors of the flag -- blue, black, red, yellow, and green on a white field -- are used because at least one of these colors exists in each of the flags of the nations participating in the Olympics. This may be true; however, the notion that each ring represents a specific continent is not. The five interlocking rings represent the five continents brought together by the Olympic Movement.

I think I remember a Hispanic version with "Wassapanin'!" and a wise guy version with "How you doin'" But I haven't found those videos.

Anybody else remember those?

[xlobo]

LOL! I've never seen them but that would be hilarious...LOL!
