The most problematic thing is that her pronunciation is so bizarre that I only understand half of what she says... Quote
Sir Rols Posted February 22 Author Report Posted February 22 This part is giving me Paris space wasp vibes… ugh! Quote
Faster Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 Honestly the commercials are so bad with CBC now I am about to give up. One section has been interrupted by 2 full commercial breaks and a side-by-side with no sound. Quote

StefanMUC Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 It is quite funny that the closing will include a medal ceremony with the anthem of the country that lost to Italy in bidding for these Games. Quote
yoshi Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 I assume the announcement of medals won is protocol for any IOC member, heard it a fair bit when flicking through medal ceremonies. At least Kirsty's is much shorter, thank goodness she won two! Quote

Its hard to surpass London's closing anyway. That ceremony set the bar too high. Quote
Bear Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 NBC is now just inserting their own highlights reel, what the hell Quote

Ikarus360 Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 We'll hear the swedish anthem in a moment. Ah, Sweden, if only you didn't cannibalized your olympic bids for once, these could had been your games. Quote

yoshi Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 (edited) The Swedish national anthem at a Winter Olympic closing ceremony. Can't help feeling it shouldn't be the only time... Edit: what a nice anthem too Edited February 22 by yoshi Quote
sebastien1214 Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 And now, stand up for the Swedish national anthem, Dancing Queen by ABBA! Quote
Bear Posted February 22 Report Posted February 22 Back to more ads. I assume the Men's 50km ceremony is next? Quote
