Gymnastics at the 1904 Summer Olympics
At the 1904 Summer Olympics of Saint Louis, Missouri, eleven gymnastics events were contested for the first time.[1]
The 1904 Games had a program of events spread out over several months, and the gymnastics competition was no different. The International Olympic Committee considers two sets of events as "Olympic":
- International Turners' Championship held July 1–2, comprising the all-around, triathlon, and team events
- Olympic Gymnastics Championships held October 29, comprising the seven individual apparatus events and the combined event.
The individual all-around was a combination of the gymnastic triathlon competition and the athletics triathlon. The team competition was a combination of individual scores from the individual all-around.[2] The parallel bars, horizontal bar, vault, and pommel horse scores for each gymnast were summed to get the combined score.

gollark: That's irrelevant, and probably only is true if you define the terms very oddly anyway.
gollark: We used to have a political-infighting. Also I have no idea why "derp" brought "evolution" into "this" but it's probably irrelevant.
gollark: I just don't think that centrally planned systems are computationally feasible, manage information flow well, or are generally very reasonable. (also centralization of power is not very good politically)
gollark: Bees means bees, as in bees or orbital bee strike.
gollark: yes, centrally planned economies bad.
