For two weeks in the winter of 1980, a small town in upstate New York had an Olympic Village filled with 1,800 of the worlds most elite athletes. Despite Cold War tensions, the mood in the village as jovial; the athletes shared meals, traded pins, and gathered in the Villages psychedelic room full of blinking electronic game machines for endless rounds of pinball.
