Title: Rafer Johnson Passed Away
Post by: Richard21142 on December 03, 2020, 07:18:58 PM

Rafer Johnson passed away at 86.  Probably the best decathalete ever.  At one point, he was ranked in the top ten in the world in six of the ten events.  He also made the 1956 Olympic team in the broad jump (the term used in 1956).

RIP!
