I'm 36 and remember holding the torch in Canmore, as well as being in the opening ceremonies at the Nordic Centre. My mom was a volunteer with the British team(she's British) and after the games was invited back to Britain to spend some time with them, she even go a picture of her with Thatcher in the background as some event.
I also remember that they got 3 tickets to the closing ceremonies, but took my brother because he is a year older, so I got to sit at my aunt's place and watch it on TV. Still bitter about that one...But we did go watch ski jumping and some ski events at Nakiska, which i remember as well.
