PrincessPurrsALot February 6, 2022 Share February 6, 2022 It is a great stadium. I love the gold helmets. The NBC announcer kept speaking over the color commentator who actually had some interesting things to say. I wonder if they weren't in the same location. Link to comment

I'm catching the replay now, and there was definitely something weird going on with the announcing. They were absolutely talking over each other, and often not even about the same thing. And there was no "excuse me, didn't mean to cut you off" or anything. It's like they weren't even commentating at the same time, but were two different feeds spliced together, badly. I didn't notice that at all with the women's ski jumping yesterday. Edited February 6, 2022 by tracyscott76 Link to comment

I noticed this, too! It was like they were in different studios, with no way of hearing each other, both commentating on things at the same time. It was weird. 1 Link to comment
blueray February 7, 2022 Share February 7, 2022 I'm sorry if this isn't the ski jump course. But I think it was as the "big air" was happening on it. It is a nice looking course. However, my husband walked into the room as I was watching it and asked about the nuclear power plants. From then on I couldn't not see them, just there in the background. So every time the USA announcer said how pretty it was, it took me out of it. 1 Link to comment

Those are cooling towers, used in many industries, not just nuclear power. The location used to be a steel mill. 1 Link to comment
