the article says it's " Inspired by ocean waves, drifting snow and mountainous landscapes.. "

if the brown one was pink, it'd be like those shrimp crackers they serve with the fried chicken dish.

Yea,
Vanoc is milking the olympics, trying to get the most out of it as possible.
1 Mascot? why not THREE!
x3 profit from olympic crazy people

As for the medals, does anyone else think that they are a misrepresentation of Vancouver? I think it looks retarded.... I mean it says its supposed to represent the mountains and oceans but... it looks like someone placed a hot piece of plastic on a few rocks and it melted resulting in this ugly wavy piece of horse crap.

God, more native designs. Does this city not have enough of an identity to come up with something original?

I guess I just don't see why we need to make the olympics like it's a world aboriginal sports competition or something.

Yeah, first thought that came to mind was some heat-warped object. Hope they look better in person, cuz right now they look like garbage!

I like them. They must look awesome in person. They must feel good in the hands.

Also, if you're pissed at getting bronze instead of gold, you can remove them from the ribbon and use them as skipping stones.


Somehow, I think they will be a hit at the Olympics. We may not like them, but our tastes are different. We see native art everywhere we go, so it's no wAnder we're sick of that shit. Visitors eat it up, though.

There really isn't much of an identity to this city when you come to think of it, other than the sea and mountains (which many other cities have ). Or the DTES. The city's not even 200 years old. The only real history that you could make anything out of are of the First Nations. But VANOC just tries too hard (or not hard enough) by making everything inspired First Nations and fails... (not saying there's anything wrong with First Nations)
