It started off like a fairly normal day. Sports Illustrated hadn't predicted a Canadian medal for the men's moguls. Mom and Dad hopped on the bus with tremendous excitement at their first Olympic event, but with really no expectations of anything other than watching a pretty cool sporting experience.
Two tickets to paradise.
Can't figure out who these folks are cheering for and maybe they thought they were at the summer games, but they seem like they're having a good time. 
The excitement builds.
The worries about the weather were unfounded. The place looked great.
Dad sells out.
Mom rocking the Maple Leaf.
During his qualification run, some Canadian named Alexandre Bilodeau caught some sweet air and did a pretty nice back flip iron cross. 
Dad's got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell.
Nice toque mom, but where are the famous red mittens?
Nice.
Of course, as it turned out Bilodeau finished second heading into the finals. He then put on the performance of a lifetime, made the whole mountain shake and an entire nation proud.
Gold at last.
Bravo Alexandre!!!
