Interesting Fact - Olympic Fact - Archery

The centre of an Olympic archery target is gold.

(Olympic Archery targets  are 122 centimetres in diameter, with the gold ring at the centre (worth a maximum 10 points) measuring just 12.2cm. Archers shoot at the target from a distance of 70 metres.

I would have lost any trivia quiz before I discovered this, as I was convinced it was red.)
