Honestly, it's not as sweet as 4 years ago. This incredible achievement happened thousands of kms away, it wasn't on home soil like 2010, so we're not as close to it. Four years ago Canadian Pride
The two highlights for me personally was enjoying the Women's gold medal win with my friend in Boston. She was in a meeting, so I texted her updates. I gave up when we were down 2-0 in the third, but her meeting was over so she'd watch it at her desk. Then she texted me that we score ... it felt like a tease. Then she texted me we were going to overtime! OMG. I'm superstitious when it comes to hockey, I let her watch and text me. The captain had carried the flag for the opening ceremonies, so they were cursed to lose, but then I got the text from her. Congrats my friend, good game, you won! OMG Hayley broke the curse and our girls were golden again. Talk about fighting back, talk about NEVER GIVING UP!
The second was a bet made by a US Transportation Company for the semi-final game in Mens hockey, USA vs Canada.
EPIC ... this started so much trash talk, and was more important than the beer bets made by the PM and POTUS. They lost!
Of course I've been hashtagging it #BestHockeyBetEVER!
