Part 1: USA's Ty Loomis & Hans Stolfus vs Brazil's Emanuel Rego & Ricardo Santos in the 2007 Pan American Games Beach Volleyball Gold Medal Match in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Location: Copacabana Beach, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
In 2007 Hans & were stoked to represent USA & USA Volleyball at the Pan American Games in Rio!
This Pan American Games was the biggest Pan American Games of all-time! With Rio trying to prove to the world that they can host a massive Olympic-style sporting event with thousands and thousands of world-class athletes, they were hoping to get the 2016 Summer Olympics bid, which they ended up getting.
Opening ceremonies were absolutely insane! It was held in Pele's old soccer stadium, one that holds well over 100,000+ fans.
With Emanuel & Ricardo winning the 2004 Beach Volleyball Olympic Gold Medal, with them having their home crowd during our Pan Ams Gold Medal Match with over 6,500+ dancing, singing, chanting, heckling & yelling fans, everything was against Hans & me.
This was one of the best competitive moments in our beach volleyball careers, as we embraced this challenge with our own celebrations, yelling, screaming, and aggressive free-flowing play.
