On Monday, May 19th, KEF Media Associates conducted an SMT with Olympic Legend Bob Beamon. Bob barely qualified for the Olympics when he was 22, but he managed to shatter the world record at the time! The record that he shattered had been held by the first long jumper to reach 29 feet, a record that stood for 23 years! Bob, along with fellow Olympic legend Keri Strug, offered a preview of this year’s Olympics.

Bob & Keri also shared their thoughts about the roles they play in Visa's new Olympic advertisting campaign, which celebrates the power of human acheivement through stories of Olympic athletes and their greatest moments.
