Chamonix 1924: Bobsleigh (Don't Drink and Bobsled!)

What's more fun than bobsled? Bobsled and champagne! Hear all about the wild rides and lack of safety features that was the first Olympic bobsled (or bobsleigh) competition at Chamonix 1924.   For a transcript of this episode, please visit http://flamealivepod.com.   Thanks so much for listening, and until next time, keep the flame alive! NOTE: An earlier version of this episode stated that Switzerland has the  the most Olympic bobsled medals. That is incorrect.
