In rugby union at the 1924 Summer Olympics held in Paris, the United States won the gold medal, beating France in an upset in front of a partisan crowd.
All the matches were played at Olympic Stadium of Colombes. It was the last time rugby was played at a Summer Olympics until rugby sevens was introduced in 2016.
