Jamaican sprinter and four-time Olympic gold medalist Usain St. Leo Bolt is one classy guy.As American Sanya Richards-Ross awaited her gold medal for winning the 400-meter dash, the “Star Spangled Banner†began to play. At the same time, Bolt was being interviewed by a Spanish journalist.This is where it gets good.Instead of continuing along and talking about, well, whatever he was talking about, Bolt halts the interview, asks the reporter to be respectful of the moment, and stands in silence to honor the U.S. national anthem and Richards-Ross’ victory.
Pretty awesome. You can hunt the clip down on YouTube if you are interested.
