Visuals: There is a ribbon that is in the shape of an satellite dish on a gold and blue background with footage. The dish opens up and the scenery changes to a man running on a background with footage and an ancient Greek structure. Then we see three rings as the background changes multiple times as the camera moves. Then, there is the dish again as it moves as more footage covers the Greek structure and the backgrounds. Then the camera moves up to the sctructure revealing four flames. Then, the Atlanta 1996 emblem forms on an skyline of the host city. A woman jumps to reveal the AOB logo.
