33 years ago today, the closing ceremonies of the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles rolled in the end of a unique Olympic experience.

With Los Angeles coming up with the 2028 bid for the Games, the athletes and volunteers from the previous LA Olympics reflect upon their experiences. Crowds of nearly 80,000 people came to experience the LA Olympics that was expressed as an open house party where everyone was invited and welcomed in.
