Today is our national holiday, St.Patrick’s Day. Each city, town and village will have their own parade today to celebrate. I will be going to my local parade at 3pm :) 

 

The Dublin City parade is starting now if anyone is interested to watch:

Slovakia celebrated today 80 years of the national uprising,

 

among the celebrations we had a quite unusual 2 hours military parade :wacko:

Even the foreign troops working here marched like the :USA army

A quick highlights video from the parade. Quite a lot of people attended it surprisingly

Terrible. I always hated copycats. :mad:

Yeah. Well, I am not a fan of military parades neither, they are not common here, it was just a special one in honor of the 80th anniversary of the SNP (Slovak national uprising),

 

but it was still more fun to see the foreign troops marching, a weird sort of parade of nations...

 

like :CRO, :ITA or my fav :POR

    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
