“Annie Cresta. She was the girl Mags volunteered for. She won about five years ago,” says Peeta.  “I don’t remember those Games much,” I say. “Was that the earthquake year?” “Yeah. Annie’s the one who went mad when her district partner got beheaded. Ran off by herself and hid. But an earthquake broke a dam and most of the arena got flooded. She won because she was the best swimmer,” says Peeta.
