**BREAKING NEWS FROM OLYMPIA, GREECE** 
Legends of the Cue visited the site of the original ancient Olympic Games today, expecting to learn about foot races, wrestling, discus, and all the usual heroic stuff.
Instead, we stumbled onto what may be the greatest archaeological discovery in cue sports history.
According to sources who may or may not have been holding tiny brushes and wearing khaki, archaeologists have uncovered **irrefutable evidence that 9-ball was contested in the very first ancient Olympic Games.**
Yes, that’s right. Before shot clocks, jump cues, FargoRate, or arguments over the rack, the Greeks were apparently already running out on a stone table in the middle of the stadium. It appears to be The 700 B.C. Brunsrock Olympiad Olive Crown IX table. Indications are this was not the TV table however.
Early translations suggest the original Olympic motto may have been:
**“Faster. Higher. Stronger. Call your pocket.”**
Naturally, this gives us renewed hope that pool will finally reclaim its rightful place in the Olympic program at the **2032 Brisbane Summer Games.**
Until then, we’ll continue digging. Carefully. With chalk.
