"I had my Olympic gold medal cut up into eleven pieces. Gave all eleven of my kids a piece. It'll come together again when they put me down." Tokyo, Japan, 1964. That's when the legend of Joe Frazier took root, against all odds. As a replacement for Buster Mathis, he made the most of his chance in Japan that year as a late entrant into the Games. Nobody could stop him. Not even a broken thumb he suffered in the semifinals would keep him from realizing his dream of bringing home gold. "Pain or not, Joe Frazier of Beaufort, South Carolina, was going for gold," he said. And he got it. As part of the ROF Olympian Gold Collection, we celebrate the great "Smokin'" Joe Frazier, American gold medalist in 1964, with this tee! Officially licensed by Joe Frazier.
