At 9:30am on Thursday, Nov. 20, a street will be re-named in SF in honor of gay Olympian TOM WADDELL. (formerly Lech Walesa Alley, it is next to City Hall bet. Van Ness & Polk, & Grove & Hayes) ALL WELCOME! Tom Waddell (November 1, 1937 - July 11, 1987) was a gay American sportsman who founded the Gay Olympics in 1982 in San Francisco. The international sporting event was later renamed the Gay Games after the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) sued Waddell for using the word Olympic in the original name. The Gay Games are held every four years.
