I heard this again and was bawling in laughter! ROTFL!!!!

“Eteri got her 40% after she allowed the skater to eat three shrimps….because she LUUUUUUUVED HER! And she kept on, example after example. “She hugged Daniel….because she LUUUUUUVED him.” Etc., etc.

I was there for free dance and men's free, and there were tons of standing ovations, cheers (I'd say roars) and claps! There were just so many great performances.

Someone compiled the clips of audience reactions after the great performance of each skater for men's free. If you watch these clips, you might understand how excited we all were to see so many great performances (and how happy these skaters were to see such reactions from the audience) that day. The atmosphere was electric and this will be one of the competitions that I will never forget.

Fans gave the S-O not only to the technically/artistically great skates, but also when they (including myself) thought someone overcame the hardship since they were quite knowledgeable about skating news (there are lots of media coverage).

Men's free (2nd group) - Shaidorov, Yamamoto, Gorodnitsky, Rizzo

Chock/Bates returned to podcasting after 4+ months with their own recap of Worlds (March 30):

Unlaced with Chock and Bates: Episode 25: World Championships Recap

Madi and Evan return with a recap of their most recent competition at the World Championships in Saitama, Japan.

bleav.com

They both had a stomach virus at Worlds on the days they competed. Which makes their performances even more amazing.

Amazed that their recounting of their stomach virus tribulations was so funny. It must have been horrible for them to be sick at Worlds. They really are resilient.

Evan joked that the wait to skate the free dance was like the movie Bridesmaids. Madi responded with Maya Rudolph's line, "It's happening"!.
