daveypodmore 520 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I love the look of lots of these venues but I keep seeing highly polished possibly marble floors inside them. Is this really a good idea in a winter venue. Surely that will be a nightmare with all those snowy/wet feet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

baron-pierreIV 1700 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 25 players and like, 10 officials? Wow. Those must be among the largest teams that are sent to an Olympics-like tournament?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fox334 93 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 25 players and like, 10 officials? Wow. Those must be among the largest teams that are sent to an Olympics-like tournament?? Ice hockey has pretty large teams in general. Its 23 players generally for international tournaments (including the Olympics), plus teams usually bring a few skaters in case there is an injury right before the tournament (sometimes a team will be allowed to replace a player during the tournament if there is a severe injury). I think Baseball used to be more, but now Ice hockey is the sport with the most athletes per team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

runningrings 678 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I want one of those quilts! It reminds me of Atlanta. Funny too how those buildings in the mountain athletes village resemble the Sochi 2014 bid logo, those jagged peaks. However, the interiors aren't too great... somewhat dated - kinda like its Sochi 1994. Thats typically Russian. I noticed when I was there that they do not do modern interior design so well.

paul 619 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 50 million bucks and THAT’S the lamp, mirror and chairs in my room………seriously? Somebody’s Olympic dream is going to end prematurely when one of those chairs collapses on an ankle before game day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
