Your favourite Olympic moment.

Mine was when Canadian snowboard cross athilete Maelle Ricker, was about to step up on the podium to reveive her Gold medal and the Swiss Bronze medal winner, Olivia Nobs was wildly waving her arms, chearing the Canadians on, to welcome their hometown girl onto the podium. That to me was pure sportsmanship of the finest and highest quality.​

Don't have one yet for these Olympics, but ask me again after Sweden wins the gold in hockey.

Mine, so far, was watching Torah Bright win Gold for Aus 😀 Closley followed by Petra Majdic taking out the bronze medal in the women's individual ski sprint after falling 10ft in a warm up crash and breaking her ribs!! 😱

That was a truly heroic moment

Those would be mine thus far. When these Olympics are over, I will know for sure.

Sorry guys, but no to be. It's going to be Canada all the way in both gold medal games. It is "OUR natiopnal sport" afterall.😀

"GO CANADA!!!"​

I already posted this in another Olympic thread, but I'll do it again anyway.

The two players I hate the most (Chris "Elbow" Pronger, and Corey "I fight with a visor on because I'm a pussy" Perry) were involved in that, which made it even funnier for me 😀

Fantastic achievement on BOTH counts! 😀 That Petra girl was heroic for sure 🙂

You really think so, eh? 😉 I guess we'll see what happens... it ain't over yet! 😀

My favourite moment SO far was Bilodeau winning the FIRST Gold Medal for Canada on home soil.... and now we have 6! We may not "Own the Podium", but we are in the running for most Gold medals... so that's pretty awesome

LMFAOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I'd have to say watching Shaun White win his gold and then going back out for a victory run and scoring even higher. That man is an amazing, amazing athlete!

I have a lot of respect for Apolo Ohno and Shani Davis too, both awesome athletes.

I have so much respect for Joannie Rochette. I lost my mom a little over a year ago and I couldn't even imagine pulling myself together for an Olympic performance. I'm glad she got a medal.

However, I am just unbelievably stunned at Kim Yu-Na's performance. As the announcer said, I too agreed that it was one of the best figure skating routines ever performed. What a prodigy she is!

Nothing can compare to Sid the Kid putting away the OT Goal for Gold on Sunday I'd have traded all 13 other medals just to make sure Canada got the one that counted in Men's Hockey... thankfully I didn't have to do that

 

[texastickler]

The Gold medal game was surely awesome. That was hockey at its finest!

YOU DID NOT SPECIFY WHICH OLYMPICS! ​

I remember Mary Lou Retton landing and scoring a perfect 10 when she landed standing up from the vault.

That's true when it comes to Hockey, with us, it's gold or nothing. Silver or bronze are a disappointment.

Remember the 1980 Olympics....................

Team USA defeated the Russian hockey team.
