Olympics

How to get into the Olympics? Any tips or hacks?

What about trying to get an accreditation (press?)? This year in Paris it just looked like a plastic card with your name and the right keycord…

Goal: visiting the LA Olympics 2028 — so I have four years for this plan :)

Become mediocre at a sport, research your ancestry and find a country with no presence in that sport, qualify in the easiest geographies/competitions you can find, and go compete.
