Today’s Question - Jim Thorpe became world famous by winning the Pentathlon in the Olympics in 1912. An equally famous American placed fifth in the same event. Who was it? We know you know his name. (Hint - he was also a great horseman.) NO COMMENT THURSDAY/FRIDAY MEDICAL STUFF

Reveal Answer Answer - The famous American who competed with Jim Thorpe and placed 5th in the 1912 Olympic Pentathlon was - George S. Patton. (Some contend there were two different types of Pentathlons in 1912. We will research and report back.) Patton was said to have been denied the medal because judges would not believe that he shot three bullets through the same hole in the bulls eye (ala Robin Hood). (Hat tip Rob Clutterbuck)
