Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

History tonight. Team flag for both Koreas held by two men one from North Korea and one from SouthKorea.

The most amazing DRONE show. Number of drones have made the Guiness Book of records.
The dove of Peace. WOW.
The flagbear of Tonga again walked out with a bare chest. Temperature was very low....he was very cold!

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

I saw that run - Goggia was amazing.

On a sad note - Canadian women's curling team....disappointing

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

Tokyo for Summer 2020, Beijing for Winter 2022 hah....expect a lot more of Asia to come

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

It feels like these were over very quickly. They were okay, I don’t recall as many malfunctions and falls during ice skating as I witnessed this year compared to prior years... but the Canadian ice dancing pair made the Olympics for me so I got something good out of it.

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

The ice dancing pair was amazing. The Olympics though were a let down in terms of hockey for Canada.

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

Yeah, the US team was due for a win. I just wish some of the Canadian women didn’t take their medals off. Silver sucks but you’re still an Olympian and a medalist, so respect it at least.

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
 

Yeah I saw that image - spur of the moment, honestly yes it was an unprofessional move but media harping on it too much. She apologized and we move on - emotions got the better of her

Re: Winter Olympics 2018 Korea
