2022 World Gymnastics Championships WAG Team Final (Tuesday 11/01 )

[Sasha]

I guess the medalists get banana dog sculptures?

 

[rlayt]

Are the statues the Loch Ness? Or a dinosaur?

 

[Doug1233]

Absolutely. Sometimes the best thing is to miss out a requirement and draw a line under it.

She kept trying and trying and she just dug and dug further into the hole.

 

[Caligym]

It is in USA too, big crowd participation sing along at sporting events

 

[Doug1233]

Ellie in the commentary area with Gymcastic was SO focused on the team. This will be insane for her!

 

[Doug1233]

OMG is Jade’s dad gonna get on the Podium hhaha

 

[makam]

British coach did, canadian initially didnt. Weird, i think.

Eta: at least peacock is giving us the medal ceremony.

 

[Caligym]

Awe they announced Shallon Olsen’s name

 

[Sasha]

I’d like to know the story behind these sculptures. They look so random.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I presume they’d have been competitive here, I just don’t care.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

The BBC are just talking about that now. Lamb and bananas were big at the docks, apparently!

 

[rlayt]

Hilarious! Look at Jade’s dad with a red sculpture thing in his hand.

 

[Sasha]

Really! That’s kinda fascinating.

 

[Caligym]

So Is it a lambana or a banalamb?

 

[Passion]

I dislike that they give a medal to the team’s head coach. Feels like it cheapens it a little.

 

[MaryClare]

Shallon Olsen will still get a medal as Canada’s alternate

 

[rlayt]

Coaches usually just get tacky-ass tattoos.

 

[Sasha]

That’s good. Goodness knows the woman has put in her time with the team!

 

[Doug1233]

Coaches usually just get tacky-ass tattoos.

OMG don’t blueghhh

 

[lovegymnasts]

May be unpopular opinion but I’m the opposite. I think giving a medal to the alternate cheapens it. What meaning does it really have for them especially over time. They didn’t compete at all.
