Dr. Tom Waddell (November 1, 1937 - July 11, 1987) was a gay American sportsman and competitor at the 1968 Summer Olympics who founded the Gay Olympics in 1982 in San Francisco. The international sporting event was later renamed the Gay Games after the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) sued Waddell for using the word Olympic in the original name. The Gay Games are held every four years.
