Anyone real interested in following the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang?
I have always liked watching Olympic sports, but this one doesn't seem quite as appealing. Can anyone name some of the American star athletes competing?
About the only ones I am very familiar with are Lindsey Vonn and Shaun White, and mostly because they have had so much national exposure for things other than their sports.
The competitions began today (Wednesday, Feb. 7). The TV coverage begins Thursday (Feb. 8 ), the opening ceremonies are Friday (2/9), and the first medals awarded are Saturday, Feb. 10.
Pyeongcheng is 13 hours ahead of the Central Time Zone, so virtually all of the competitions and medal ceremonies will be occurring between 10 PM and 6 AM our time. So unless you have insomnia, you won't see very much live coverage.
Here is the daily schedule of event competition-
