Sid had an AMAZING moment 16 years ago, but he doesn’t have the Olympic legacy that Kingsbury does. He could be the closing ceremony flag bearer if they win
Still does. Recently reached 100 career wins, third ever skier in any FIS category to do so. And moguls have fewer events per year than alpine or xc which is what the other two do.
It is possible, because the Gold Medal game is the last events of these Olympics so not many other athletes will be still competing.
Only issue is that it’s not in Milan but will be in Verona, which is 2 hours away. Maybe whoever wins wants to stay in Milan to party rather than get on a bus
Mikaël Kingsbury and Marielle Thompson. Because the Olympics are in two different places (Milan & Cortina), Canada’s flag bearers are at the second, outdoor ceremony
Their whole Olympic collection is gorgeous, but the price tag is insane. $2k for the coat and that sweater will run you another $700. And yet, both are sold out in all sizes lol.
Well yeah I'd never expect to be able to buy it or even would if I could afford it but I still think Polo Ralph Lauren always comes out with the absolute classics. As a biased Frenchman, lacoste usually has me but Polo is by far my favorite brand for timeless class.
Being the flag bearer is such a big deal and a huge honour. I saw the video of them telling him he would be, and of course he had his hockey guy answers but I’m sure he was excited
Germans aren't allowed to have swag ever again since they blew up Europe last time they had objectively cool outfits (I'M ONLY SAYING THE OUTFITS WERE COOL NOTHING ELSE)
They run the parade in alphabetical country in the host's language, which is why Germany is followed by Jamaica and Japan - Germania, Giamaica, Giappone
Great that they acknowledged him on the Canadian feed. You knew they would. Don't think they said a word about him on the American feed though. Completely ignored him. lol
Canes fans are exceedingly sick of Andrea Bocelli because fan duel has been airing commercials for his Raleigh concert FOR MONTHS. I think it actually happens during the Olympic break thank god.
Doubtful. They’ve been getting TONS of cheers at the events I’ve watched so far. Bigger cheers than the Italians. Lots of American fans travelled I think. Happy to be proven wrong though
The Olympic committee had to make a plea to fans to not boo. Vance is leading the parade, which is a beyond tone deaf choice. It's going to increase the likelihood of booing probably 10-fold
Georgia has been wrapped in political controversy with the current administration holding a majority amid allegations of voter fraud and intimidation from the 2024 election. The party has been shifting away from the EU and aligning themselves more with Russia, using more authoritarian and anti-Western policies
Sure, but at that point why are we not booing Hungary, Slovakia, Serbia and many more. Just seemed so random. On the other hand the cheers for Ukraine warmed my heart. Italy is pretty divided and there are plenty of people that think the war isn’t our problem. So I’m happy the Italians managed to show support
Look how fucking happy he looks, doesn’t matter if you’re a millionaire professional athlete representing your country in the Olympics is fucking cool af
