Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I guess Bugs Bunny is the reference. It rings a faint bell.
After posting it rang a bell to me, too - not of actually remembering it, but rather of a Buffista (I wanna say Jon B) explaining it to me.
[Edit: And Kathy's answer was even better than what I managed to Google. I love the hivemind.]
I believe the U.S. territories that can have their own Olympic teams are Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, Canada, and U.S. Virgin Islands.
I knew it was Bugs Bunny, but I didn't know it was (more) literary on top of it. Kind of creepy, now, too. If what I remember of the fate of the little fuzzy things is correct.
Kristen! It's been forever since I posted with you! How are you doing?

Canada???
Very droll, Gud.
Canadia get its own team???
Hong Kong IS China.
Oh, duh. Forgot that it is now, in the reading about the weirdness of quarantine and that being the reason for having dressage and evening being waaaaay off elsewhere. I just thought that was so sad--apparently hardly any of the equestrians went to the opening ceremonies because they would've had to fly there and back and lose days of training!
"I'm gonna love him, and squeeze him and call him George."
And here I was hoping for George Clooney. sigh.
Well, if you were in showjumping or dressage you might have gone but I'm sure that the eventers didn't bother. (Because day 1 of eventing was Saturday and it started at 6:30 am.)
