Notes

PyeongChang 2018 – costume worn by the “flower children” for the skating competitions. The “flower children” went on the ice after each turn in figure skating to collect the flowers and stuffed animals thrown by the spectators. The skater who caused the most work was Yuzuru Hanyu. “After Hanyu’s performances in the short and free programmes, we had nearly 50 bags of stuffed toys. It took us three minutes to clear the rink,” said one person. OCOG donation
