Here in Vancouver, it's snowing. Here, that's an emergency. I know the hockey gold will be awarded tomorrow, but is there much activity other than that? Isn't it the closing ceremonies tomorrow?

I know the hockey gold will be awarded tomorrow, but is there much activity other than that? Isn't it the closing ceremonies tomorrow? Hockey and I think a 50 km ski final of something... Then closing ceremonies. I hope that this isn't as good as Canada can get, 2010 hopefully will be ownage. We had 13 4th position finals, that sucks lol Cindy Klassen owned for Canada :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/436473-canada-winds-gold-bronze-in-speed-skating/#findComment-587243876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
