Olympics score big numbers!

Not only did the United States win the most medals during the XXIX Olympiad with 110, but NBC scored high marks as well!

WKYC Program Coordinator, Donna Kropf, released figures for the Summer Olympics in Beijing.

She said NBC Universal tallied 214 million viewers over the 17 days!

According to Nielsen, this was the most watched event in U.S. TV history topping the Atlanta and Athens games.

Thank you, Cleveland, for tuning into our local athletes performances as well as the big name story lines! It was an exciting 17 days!!!
