On June 7, 1904, the first Olympic Games held in the United States began in St. Louis, Missouri. This event was part of the World's Fair, officially known as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. The St. Louis Games featured a reduced number of sports and athletes compared to previous Olympics, and they were marked by controversies, including the exclusion of many international competitors. The Games also introduced several new sports, such as tug of war and freestyle Wrestling.
