What are you going to watch? Or attending in-person? Do you know anyone competing in this year's winter Olympics?

Ilia Malinin attends GMU and graduated from Marshall HS, so I imagine someone on DCUM knows him (or has kids that know him).

Milan Italy is a weird spot, it's in the 40s every day

The outdoor events are in Cortina and surrounding areas in the Dolomites. Cortina is 4-5 hours from Milan, so there are really 2 bases for the Olympics.

I am a skiing fan so will watch as much of that as I can, especially the women's events. I also like watching Olympic snowboarding events. I will be in Aspen for the tail end of the X-Games at the end of this month so looking forward to seeing some of the stars live. We thought about going to Cortina but figured it would be overrun given that the towns in the region are quite small.

They will have aritifical snow as they have in other winter Olympics and like at local ski resorts. Maybe they should go back to just having one Olympics with the planet warming

Since the experts claimed human life on the planet would cease any year now, I’m surprised you want to plan ahead more than a year or so. Unless maybe you don’t really believe those dire predictions.

I didn’t realize the Olympics were so soon. I’m excited! I remember loving to watch Olympic figure and speed skating when I was a kid in the 90s.

Yeah no experts were saying that.

He is the top figure skater in the world, male or female, to ever skate.

His skills are simply incredible.
