To those who don't know (or haven't been paying attention in this thread
), I am a HUGE skating fan and one of the most emotional moments of me being a fan was watching Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir become Canada and North America's first ever Ice Dancing Olympic Champions on Home Ice. First time I ever saw them was back in 2002 at the Canadian Championships when they Jr Champions and skated in the Gala.
So...What does have to do w/*this* thread? Well..Guess who were not only guests at the Official Dinner the other night, but sat at the Head Table w/HM and HRH?
Skate Canada (the governing body/organization for figure skating in Canada) has posted Tessa and Scott's account of their experience over at their web site and I'm sharing the link here...

Enjoy reading and I dare any of you to say you wouldn't have done what Tessa and Scott did at the end of the Dinner and HM and HRH had left.
And nope...Not sayin...You've got to read it to find out...
