Olympic Predictions Contest - RESULTS


Ian won, but due to a flagrant technical foul against the referee during the scoring process, he has incurred a two point deduction. However, this deduction was not enough to erase his ridiculous 3.5 point lead on the field. 

Deserving note were the TWO "hat tricks" in the women's 800m, in which all three places were correctly chosen by both Ian and Garrett. 

Please double check your scores. I apologize in advance for all the errors I most likely committed.

I misread this as "Horrible mention", and thought, "that was pretty mean," but then realized that it was actually pretty nice considering how terrible I did.

I guess we all owe Ian some Khachapouri.
