Did anyone watch the olympics and catch the RC equipment retrievers during the track and field events?

Maybe we all can get olympic jobs in LA in '28

Ha! that's crazy. Must be a sponsored novelty thing as you'd think there would be better ways to go about doing that. A single golf cart would require less time and resources. Heck, even having someone carrying them would.

It’s been happening since at least London in 2012

Yes, London was the first time I saw any use of RC in the Olympics. They had a Mini carrying discus and such back to the pits. Search for video.

Looked for it this past summer, did not see much. Doesn't mean they did not use it. Very cool.

Would be cooler if RC racing was an Olympic event but still cool nonetheless.

Well if break dancing and skateboarding can be Olympic events why not rc
