The Olympics was established over 100 years ago, but can you spot its iconic symbol?
The founder of the Olympics Pierre de Coubertin created the Olympic rings as a symbol of the five continents that had come together for the sporting event.
“The Olympics represent excellence, respect, and agility on a global stage,” said a Jackpot City spokesperson
“Some of the best athletes from countries across the world compete in challenging events that test their mental, physical, and emotional endurance.
“If you can find the real Olympic rings within 10 seconds, then you too are a champion, with the spirit and skill the Olympics prides themselves on recognizing.”
Everyone knows that yellow, red, and green are among the rings but it’s easy to forget the other two colors.
It’s also difficult to remember the order each ring should be positioned.

If you need another clue, think about which color looks like it doesn’t belong in the symbol.
