Atlanta 1996 CC-Samaranch's Speech(2) & Passing Olympic FlagMore videos

Continuing from the previous clip, Juan Antonio Samaranch continued his closing speech, after the moment of silence and Stevie Wonder's performance.Here, he spoke it in both English and French. It was famous for mentioning the 1996 Olympic Games as "the exceptional Games." Along the way, he awarded Billy Payne with an Olympic Order in Gold. The last part of this clip highlighted the passing of the Antwerp Olympic Flag from former Atlanta mayor, Bill Campbell, to Juan Antonio Samaranch. From there, the IOC president passed the Olympic Flag to the former Lord Mayor of Sydney: Frank Sartor. Note: According to news I read in the Internet, former mayor Bill Campbell was sent to jail for 30 months in 2006 for tax evasion and ordered to pay fines and back taxes, with a one-year probation on top of that.
