Is the Gay Games worthwhile?

Is the Gay Games actually prestigious, or does it attract mostly mediocre, unknown LGBTQ athletes? Is it a time for LGBTQ athletes who don't stand a chance in the Olympics or other competitions to shine? Any stories to tell?

My husband won a medal in Tennis! I'm so proud of him.

Won a silver in shot put @ 1994 Games in NYC. Great experience!

I’m sure by now, like everything else gay, it’s probably all trannies.

If you get the chance go! Some competitors are good but most are not. They should be considered as a masters competition and then you know what level to expect.

Yes, bitches. I should have written “Are” instead of “Is.” I write pretty one day.

I love that the Gay Games has a physique event.

Fewer cities are interested in hosting the event. Is this because of homophobia or strictly about money?

R6 - Meh - to me the Gay Games denotes a specific singular event - we're not talking about each of the games.

See this example: The Summer Olympic Games, also known as the Summer Olympics or the Games of the Olympiad, is a major international multi-sport event normally held once every four years.

So I believe you were right OP. And anyone bitching is a finger-wagging scold who is actually not correct.

Imagine that olympic village. Do they open a Steamworks-To-Go or a U-Haul booth?

Well, this guy certainly was qualified. Former Olympian participates in Gay Games. and...he's very easy on the eyes.
