The Modern Olympic Games started in 1896 in Athens.  The Centennial Olympic Games would have taken place in 1996 (Atlanta).  If I remember the story correctly, Athens originally won the bid for the '96 games but couldn't get their act together so they lost them to Atlanta.  Then they went back and got the '04 games

Official opening of the Games by: HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.\n\nMelbourne won the right to host the 1956 Olympics by one vote over Buenos Aires. Australian quarantine laws were too severe to allow the entry of foreign horses, so the equestrian events were held separately in Stockholm in June. The Melbourne Games were the first to be held in the southern hemisphere. Laszlo Papp of Hungary became the first boxer to win three gold medals. American Pat McCormick won both diving events, just as she had in 1952. Two athletes dominated the gymnastics competition. On the men’s side, Ukrainian Viktor Chukarin earned five medals, including three gold, to bring his career total to eleven medals, seven of them gold. Agnes Keleti of Hungary brought her career total to ten medals by winning four gold medals and two silver. The U.S. basketball team, led by Bill Russell and K.C. Jones, put on the most dominant performance in Olympic history, scoring more than twice as much as their opponents and winning each of their games by at least 30 points. U.S. weightlifter Paul Anderson weighed 137.9kg. In weightlifting, ties are broken by awarding the higher place to the athlete with the lower body weight. Incredibly, this worked to Anderson’s advantage when he tied for first with Humberto Selvetti of Argentina. Selvetti weighed 143.5kg. Prior to 1956, the athletes in the Closing Ceremony marched by nation, as they did in the Opening Ceremony. In Melbourne, following a suggestion by a young Australian named John Ian Wing, the athletes entered the stadium together during the Closing Ceremony, as a symbol of global unity.\n\n72 NOCs (Nations)\n\n3 314 athletes (376 women, 2 938 men)\n\n145 events \n\nOfficial opening of the Games by: HRH the Duke of Edinburgh\n\nLighting the Olympic Flame by: Ron Clarke (athletics)\n\nOlympic Oath by: John Landy (athletics)\n\nOfficial Oath by: The first officials' oath was sworn at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich.
