"Legacy on Ice" benefit show in D.C. (March 2, 2025) and ways to help those affected by the air tragedy over the Potomac River

[Debbie S]

Seats are filling up to the rafters. Reminds me of skating glory days when SOI and COI would sell out.

Merchandise stand was mobbed, line a mile long. I may try to hit it up during intermission.

I'm going to cry through this whole thing, I can already tell. I teared up twice before the skating even started.

 

[Barbara Manatee]

Lovely skate from Amber.

Same. Cried through Amber's skate and still crying now that Johnny's on the ice.

 

[Garden Kitty]

I love seeing Brian and Kristi hosting. They've become sort of the "active" elder statesmen for skating and you can always count on them to support skating and charitable causes.

 

[Aceon6]

Subdued Johnny was nice to see.

 

[Rukia]

Subdued Johnny was nice to see.

I think sometimes it's easy to just kind of forget that Johnny was a skater first and foremost and idk just something about seeing him putting it all into his skating really got to me

 

[Barbara Manatee]

Oh lord, Over the Rainbow. I'm sobbing.

His face said it all

Absolutely tremendous skate from Sofia.

 

[Aceon6]

Sofia B holding it together. Lovely skater and a lovely skate.

 

[Garden Kitty]

This must have been incredible pressure for Sofia B. and she handled it beautifully

 

[Barbara Manatee]

These little kids pointing out how damn young so many of those who died were. Gutting.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I already need to open another box of tissues. I’m glad this is streaming on YouTube for those of us outside the US.

It was really great of the ISU to share the link on their social media earlier today.

 

[Wyliefan]

Sound's started to go in and out on Peacock. I hope they can get it straightened out.

I was wondering if it was just me.

 

[Wyliefan]

That little girl with Ted Leonsis (granddaughter?) looks completely unimpressed that grandpa got a shoutout.

 

[Rukia]

even here i cannot escape never enough

Happening on YouTube too.

 

[Karen-W]

Well, it's not a skating weekend without "Never Enough" - thanks Emily & Ian for giving us our weekly dose since I don't think anyone at Jr Worlds did.

 

[Wyliefan]

I wasn't sure that lift was going up. Good save.

 

[Aceon6]

I’m not going to criticize it. I’m sure the invitees wracked their repertoires for a program that was suitable.

 

[Lanie]

Mini and I both cried at the group number. Sofia is one brave girl.

 

[Karen-W]

I’m not going to criticize it. I’m sure the invitees wracked their repertoire for a program that was suitable.

True enough. Today is going to be chock full of schlocky song choices. Here we come with "The Impossible Dream"...

Don't forget the opening song was Hallelujah

 

[Wyliefan]

That was really beautiful from Jason.
