I'm kinda embarrassed for Canada Right now

[MadBadger]

Nickelback? Avril Lavigne? Simple Plan? Oh boy.

:P

[Skittles]

1. INFLATABLE MOOSES AND BEAVERS ALONG WITH NEIL YOUNG TRUMPS ALL

yes INDEED

[Lucy Goosey]

3. +1

Giant inflatable beavers!

...that is all.

[MadBadger]

5. It was like a scene out of Springtime for Hitler

[Lucy Goosey]

6. ...but in the best possible way.

;)

It was supposed to be tongue in cheek.

[Skittles]

7. pay no attention to the naysawers, Lucy Goosey

Canada RAWWWWWWKS :thumbsup:

[WildEyedLiberal]

13. + Infinity

NOTHING will EVER trump the giant inflatable beavers. EVER. Canada just won the Olympics ceremonies for the rest of history.

2. I am feeling old,

Who are these people playing.

[Forkboy]

4. Nomeansno make up for any Canadian deficiencies.

[lifesbeautifulmagic]

8. I am kinda with you Skittles...

it is oh so cheesy in that Canadian way.

Of course, having Neil Young sing that song made everything better.

And the giant dancing neon maple leafs....

[grasswire]

9. Costas had to say "giant inflatable beavers"........hahahahaha!

That was almost the bestus part.

Michael Buble singing "Maple Leaf Forever" was the best. My Canadian father taught me that song when I was a little child and my dad would be 101 years old today.

14. I rewound that moment twice.

I'm waiting for it to show up on The Soup.

"Who doesn't like a giant, inflatable beaver?" :rofl: Priceless.

[Sebastian Doyle]

10. Celine Dion and Anne Murray weren't available

...and they couldn't get the Platinum Blonde reunion off the ground.

Where the Hell is Loverboy, damn it? They're probably the biggest band to ever come out of Vancouver.

(Commercially speaking, of course. You know damn well they wouldn't put DOA or No Means No on the air)

[av8rdave]

15. Rush would have been a nice touch

[Skip Intro]

11. I was in a bar and only saw bits, didn't hear any of it. But Shatner was there, right?

If Shatner was there, it couldn't have been too bad.

Plus, the self-ribbing about the third tower that failed to rise in the opening ceremony was cool, from a distracted, visual-only pov...

[bluesbassman]

12. Coulda been worse. I'm thinking Robert Goulet singing O Canada,

and forgetting those lyrics too...

[mcctatas]

16. "the always enjoyable giant inflatable beaver"

17. I forgive him now for talking over Neil Young's intro.

:rofl:

[grasswire]

19. someone registered the domain name already

"Cause nothing says Canada like a giant inflatable beaver"

[tonekat]

18. I was hoping that Rush would play, no such luck N/T

[Swede]
