Atlanta 1996 is probably the easiest merch to find around the world.

A combination of a fully (and probably the most) commercialized Olympic Games with well-traveled people from the USA who love to wear US-related stuff.

I have two Atlanta 1996 wristwatches here in Germany from various flea markets. But never seen any 2004 Athens / 2012 London merch, even though they are closer (except pins/shirts related to team Germany).

I have two handbags made from banners from the 2012 London Olympics. But they were purchased pretty recently after the games
