Paul Rabil Instagram – The @olympics flame is a symbol of continuity between the first and modern games. A passing of the torch inspired by the relay races in Ancient Greece. To be a part of history ahead of the Paris games was emotional for me — and something I’ll never forget.
I remember watching Muhammad Ali carry the flame to Atlanta in 1996. The world watched. Next time the Olympics are back in the US, it’ll include lacrosse. It’s been over 100 years since we suited up. What a moment for the sport — one that brought me back to the days when I dreamed of being an Olympian, watching with my family, cheering on Team USA.
