I was almost 7 at the time, but I clearly remember all the excitement leading up to and during the games. Also I could watch ski jumping with a pair of binoculars from our balcony in Hawkwood. I also remember going down to Stephen Avenue and seeing all the pin collectors.
Other things I remember:
-Elizabeth Manley
-The Jamaican bobsled team
-Eddie the Eagle
-Alberto Tomba (my mom is Italian)
-A "mini" Olympic torch relay through Hawkwood that us kids got to do
-Sun Ice stuff EVERYWHERE
Crazy that it has been 25 years.
