One of the most iconic calls in sports of what is still regarded as the greatest upset in Olympic history. Mr. Mills still lives in Sacramento and has done a ton for Native American runners. If you aren't familiar with his story, his movie, Running Brave, was not as well done as the Prefontaine biopics, but definitely worth the time if you are a student of Track and Field.
