I don’t have a fondest memory. I just have a tradition where I watch the figure skating. I started watching when I was a young child. The skaters always looked so beautiful and graceful
When Nancy Kerrigan won the silver medal at the 1994 Winter Olympics!!
The US 1980 Hockey team winning the gold medal. Great moment. Thanks!

I recall watching the winter olympics many many times but I can’t remember a single event. Watching the olympics on tv was more about spending time with the family (in a weird sort of way) than the games themselves. I will make it a point to actually remember some of the stuff that happens in 2010!

We always loved watching the figure skaters as kids. My sister and I begged our mom to take us to the local rink and we’d pretend we were the gold and silver champs for months after each Olympics.

I don’t watch the Olympics too much, but it was so exciting when last summer, the US swim team beat the French in the relay race at the last split second. So intense!
How can ever beat the 1980 Mens Hockey finals!? That was awesome!
The hockey team beating the Russians.

My favorite is watching figure skating with my family
My favorite Winter Olympics was way back in 1988 (showing my age here, I know!) when Brian Boitano won the gold medal in men’s figure skating.

Marina Klimova and Sergei Ponomarenko, ice dancing, 1992. I fell in love with the piece of music they used. Called the Figure Skating association and everyone I could think of trying to find out what it was. Luckily for me, they won, and they repeated their number in a special exhibition, so I was able to find out that it was Bach’s “Suite No. 3 Air” and I used it in my wedding later the same year.

I still remember the year USA beat the Soviets at ice hockey. It was incredible. Thanks for the contest.
