Happy Heavenly Birthday To Florence Delorez Griffith Joyner!! 🥳🎉 Flo-Jo would have turned 62 today! Please show some L💜ve for the fastest woman of all-time, track and field athlete, #FlorenceGriffithJoyner ✨ Florence Griffith Joyner ran like no woman had ever run before. She became a household name after setting world records in the 100m & 200m at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea She did it with notable flair, too. In an age where runners were told, strictly, not to wear their hair long, wear jewelry or grow long nails, Flo Jo did just those things. It didn’t make her any slower, as coaches of the era would've claimed. She was the fastest runner in the world and she was going to act like it. Four-inch, decorative nails. One-legged leotards. Long, flowing hair. It didn't matter. She became such a fashion icon that, after Griffith retired from track in 1989, she was commissioned by the #IndianaPacers to design their uniforms. The “Flo-Jo’s,” as they were lovingly named, are still an icon of 90s basketball. Griffith was part of a family that became track royalty. She married Al Joyner, gold medal winner in the triple jump during the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. Her sister-in-law was Jackie Joyner-Kersee, an all-time great in the heptathlon and long jump who won six Olympic medals. Griffith passed away of an epileptic seizure in 1998. She had been treated for three seizures throughout the 1990s. She was 38. To date, her 200m world and Olympic record (21.34) as well as her 100m world record (10.49) still stand. Her 100m Olympic record (10.62) was improved in 2021 at the 2020 Summer Olympics in #Tokyo by #ElaineThompsonHerah (10.61). #LosAngelos #California #1980Olympics #1984Olympics #1988Olympics #CaliforniaStateUniversity #UCLA #100Meters #200Meters #AlJoyner #TrackAndField #GoldMedal 🥇 #SilverMedal 🥈 #Olympic #FastestWomanOfAllTime #USATrackAndField #HallOfFame #FlorenceGriffithJoynerElementarySchool #MissionViejo #ArtOfTheOlympians #MostInfluentialWomenOfThePastCentury Sources: SportsIllustrated, GettyImages ✨👉🏾 Kindly FOLLOW Our New Page @wonderwombman2 (DM FOR PROMO RATES) 📬📥 https://www.instagram.com/p/CXvt0gzueVf/?utm_medium=tumblr

33. Judo Olympic Pin: Hodori the Tiger, official mascot of the 24th Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea. Vintage item from the late 1980s. For collectors of Olympics-related items, or particularly of Seoul 1988. Condition: Good. Has not been used. Found in a box of costume jewelry. Size: 1 inch long x 7/8 inch wide. The pin is intact and it’s colors untouched. It has a butterfly clutch back, which still works well as a lock. It is still inside its original 1988 plastic casing. There are no tears or holes and it has no discoloration. The flap has embossed Korean characters and phone number of the manufacturer Eden Arts Industrial Co. as licensed by SLOOC (the Seoul Olympic Organizing Committee). The pin was only out of the original plastic case in order to be photographed. #Seoul1988 #1988Olympics #1988SummerOlympics #Hodori #HodoriTheTiger #24thOlympics #24thOlympiad #OlympicsMemorabilia #SeoulSouthKorea #Seoul #SouthKorea #JudoOlympicsPin #JudoHodori #OlympicsPin #OlympicsCollectibles (at Cebu City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRrnVJ_Ao-7/?utm_medium=tumblr
