2012. And before that, 2008. I remember people, including me, going absolutely crazy for that Michael Phelps photo finish in 2008, but it certainly didn't ignite a nation's passion for speed swimming.
Phelps records was a huge achievement. But I know for a fact people weren't crowding up bars, and watching the swim meet across parks all over the country.
