Medal Gear Solid (photos from the Tank)

by Conico do Mayo Miracle on Mar 3, 2010 3:29 PM PST

You probably heard, but the gold and silver medals from our 5 finned Olympians were on display last night outside Section 125 (or thereabouts). Here's a look:

Nice display, if you ask me

Joe Pavelski's silver medal

Left to right - Dany Heatley, Joe Thornton, Dan Boyle, and Patrick Marleau's gold

Medal madness! (I watched one dude take twenty photos of the medals before he finally left the front - what a hog)

I took 2 good pictures…and a few bad ones haha. It was pretty neat to see those in person.

I’m glad you got some nice, clear ones. All I had was my blackberry, and it takes grainy pictures. Not as fun.

It was definately kinda madness there. That one dude taking pictures for a good 10 minutes was kinda insane…

Hey, I live here now and told everyone I’d be rooting for Canada before the Olympics started. Plus, my parents have dual citizenship so I have spent a bit of time in Canada since I was in middle school. But feel free to be a douche.

I love the dude with the pretzel

He looks like he just got caught in a stampede. He’s lucky he still has that pretzel!

So I was in this mob with my mom trying to see the medals

and this middle aged man thought I bumped him or something and wanted to to fight me. I defused the situation by saying he said really act his age. The extra awesome part? Afterwards, as the crowd moved I saw his 3-year old son holding his hand the entire. Show Billy how adults deal with conflict!
