If you could travel on a time machine to any Olympics of the past, which Olympics would you want to attend?

Any Summer Olympics between 1896 and 2004 and the Winter Olympics between 1924 and 2002.
For The Summer Olympics, I would like to see the 1896 and 2004 Summer Olympics which were both held in Athens, Greece to see the difference between the first Summer Olympics and the last Summer Olympics held. I would also like to see the first Summer Olympics held in the United States in St. Louis, MO (USA) in 1904 and the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley, California (USA) and the 1960.
I have listed two sources as a guide to help you from Wikipedia;

Winter Olympics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Olympics

1980 Winter Games in Lake Placid N.Y…..and we all know why of course…U.S. Hockey Team victory over the Russians and going on to win the Gold Medal had to be one of the top 5 most memorable Olympic events of all time.

1998 in Nagano, 2002 in Salt Lake City would be close seconds to…
1988 in Calgary…
I know I live here but I was one year off of being born. I always wonder what it would have been like. I read this huge guide that was published, and look at my Nana’s pictures of their experiences.
It looked really amazing too. The pictograms made of people during the opening looked neat.
