I see flames from where she would be holding the torch. IT just seems it isn't a big fiery bowl anymore.

I thought it was usually a surprise. I seem to remember the same thing at the last winter games.

(turned out to be the 1980 US Men's Ice Hockey team)

For the first time, eight women, including Susan Sarandon and Italy's Sophia Loren carried the Olympic flag into the stadium.

WTF? Who gives a shvt about Susan Surandon. Esp with respect to the Olympics.

I think it was because the anarchists (WTF?!) said they wanted to attack the torch.

The final carrier is often kept secret until the last moment, and is usually a sports celebrity of the host country.

It has to do with the anarchists i tell you!

LOL i can't find a google of it now, because they were able to steal the torch from a runner, so that's all that's cluttering up google search.
