I find it refreshing to finally see someone poke fun of others or rub it in. That’s the way it was when I grew up and almost everyone had a good laugh or patiently awaited their turn for revenge. Also refreshing to see kids brought up in the era of the dreaded participation medal actually make winning mean something, they know what the score is folks no matter how much it’s hidden from them as kids.
Sad that our Canadian kids treated the Silver Medal as if it was a participation medal. Meanwhile Finland celebrated coming in third. Different cultures, different reactions.
