Gay Games – Team Pittsburgh for 2014
In August 2014, the 9th Gay Games comes to Cleveland Ohio. The Gay
Games is the world's largest sporting and cultural event organized by
and specifically for LGBT athletes, artists, musicians, and others. It
welcomes participants of every sexual orientation and every skill
level. Originally called the Gay Olympics, it was started in San
Francisco in 1982, as the brainchild of Tom Waddell. It retains many
similarities with the Olympics, including the Gay Games flame which is
lit at the opening ceremony.
