A bona fide circus freak defended her bobsleigh gold (2 woman sleds), and the hockey ended as God and Gordie Howe intended. Almost more of a relief than a source of genuine joy, but such is the way of the force for its defenders.
It seemed a rather successfully organised and executed affair, which is a shame for anti-Poutineites, but probably better all around. At least there was no Munich or Atlanta replays.
Where are the next ones? Is it another built from scratch Podunkery?

In a highly controversial 3–2 judge's decision, South Korean boxer Park Si-Hun defeated American Roy Jones, Jr., despite Jones pummeling Park for three rounds, landing 86 punches to Park's 32. Allegedly, Park himself apologized to Jones afterward. One judge shortly thereafter admitted the decision was a mistake, and all three judges voting against Jones were eventually suspended. The official IOC investigation concluding in 1997 found that three of the judges had been wined and dined by South Korean officials.This led to calls for Jones to be awarded a gold medal, but the IOC still officially stands by the decision, despite the allegations. Jones was awarded the Val Barker trophy, as the best stylistic boxer of the 1988 games, which was only the third and to this day the last time in the competition's history when the award did not go to one of the gold medal winners. The incident led Olympic organizers to establish a new scoring system for Olympic boxing.[43] A similarly controversial decision went against U.S. team member Michael Carbajal. These incidents led Olympic organizers to establish a new scoring system for boxing.

Except for shoes.
I don't think she's making particularly good choices regarding shoes.
(Just being an ass ... actually I agree.)
