So many amazing memories:

- I remember being packed shoulder to shoulder in some dump bar off Granville and the whole place losing their minds over a curling match.

- I remember having a conversation at a bar with two Slovaks wearing Demitra jerseys who made the trip over. They had an extra ticket to the Russia - Slovakia game that night and I joined them. Sitting in the Slovak section hissing the Russians. Slovakia ended up winning after Demitra scored in a shootout and they went absolutely insane. The guys were in tears. Amazing moment.

- Sitting behind Bob Mckenzie and the crew for the Canada vs. Germany game when Shea Weber blasted one through the net and no one really knew what happened. Everything was kind of quiet and the play went on when Mckenzie actually stood and shouted it was in! Our whole section started going nuts and yelling at the refs to go check.

Yeah....the Olympics were awesome

I hate you.
