USA–USSR Track and Field Dual Meet Series
USA-USSR Dual Track Meet Series was an athletics meeting between United States and Soviet Union. It was held 19 times during the Cold War era from 1958 to 1985. The meeting was arranged alternatively in both countries, exception being the last event in 1985 which was held in Tokyo, Japan. Seven indoor meetings were also competed in the 1970s. Although the meetings were foremost athletic competitions, they served as propaganda and foreign diplomacy tools as well.〔Turrini, p. 1–2〕
The most classic meeting is considered the 1962 competition in Stanford, California, with an attendance of more than 150,000 on a two-day event, the largest ever on a non-Olympic track and field competition. Even the Soviet workouts attracted crowds of 5,000. The Stanford meeting was held just two months before the Cuban missile crisis but the American and Soviet athletes competed in harmony and mutual friendship. Two world records were set in Stanford, Valeriy Brumel on high jump and Hal Connolly on hammer throw.
