Some weird language here. E.g.:
Despite the United State's unparalleled success in the summer Olympics, the heroes of Atlanta will soon fade away into the heap of past Olympic athletes. Although millions looked on with a smile as medals were dispensed and the national anthem was repeatedly played, the average American's interest in Olympic glory will die out before next season's sitcom lineup is announced. For Ecuadorians however, the achievements of a 22 year-old speed-walker from Cuenca will receive top billing for some time to come. On July 26, Jefferson Perez walked into the Ecuadorian history books by winning the gold medal in the 20 km speed-walking marathon and becoming Ecuador's first Olympic medalist. It seemed as if all of Ecuador was glued to a television set on the morning of the 26th, when he quickly strolled by a German before crossing the finish line in the Olympic stadium. Afterwards car horns blared, flags waved and businessmen walking to work seemed to have a little more pep in their step. That afternoon, most businesses closed down for the short period while Perez received his medal and everyone sang along with the Ecuadorian anthem.
