Funniest or Cringiest Kiss and Cry Moments

Tara Lipinski 1998 Olympics.
I admit that Tara's reaction to winning gold was honestand that she deserved to win, but still felt with the jumping like she stomped all over Kwan's dream. Sorry Tara fans but I cringe to this day when seeing this clip.

Not a straight example as this came from the commentating booth in reaction to the K&C but as Simon Reed gets a lot of flak these days, let's not forget his very true words from 2003 after Shen/Zhao's FS at Worlds: "One judge has them second. Should be carried off and spanked."

I can't remember which competition it was - Skate America 2020 or Nationals 2021 - but it was one of the ones where the skaters' family and friends were patched in to the K&C over webcams.

Amber Glenn's father popped up and she blurted out, "Oh, Dad! Look at you and your Bell's palsy!"

Will you accept “the entire area at NHK?”

That area was busy. Surprised the skaters were visible with all that busyness around them.

Also, skaters habitually stealing ice cream from the Russian K&C was funny. Company lost 36% of their revenue that weekend. Haha

Christopher Bowman 1990 Worlds arguing with coach Frank Carroll

I’m glad the link was posted.

If you‘ve never seen it It, take a look. With such a memorable lines as:

Chris: It’s a jungle out there, I had to put in a jump.
Frank: I know you put in an extra jump, I choreographed it. (not happy )
And Chris to Frank: you have no heart.

I am paraphrasing, but this was a memorable KnC.

But I love Frank's difficulty in trying not to laugh, straight after that argument...

Also:
CB: Well I went for it.
FC: For the second time
CB: All head and no heart
CB: There's a war going on out there

Anything from 2021 Cup of Austria where scores where posted using post-it notes and the rink announcer was beyond hilarious and entertaining

Your quotes are much better, mine was just paraphrasing. But it's also the facial expressions from Frank. It was quite the KnC.

I'm not gonna go dig up examples, but Pogorilaya and her coach were often quite funny/cringe-worthy with Pogorilaya being SUPER emotional after a bad skate and her coach most of the time being emotionless, and the 'do not engage with the tears' posture. It was so funny and cringy seeing the total polar opposites in emotion.

It starts with the replay of Stephan's reaction to Deniss' skate. And then Deniss exclaiming "I love to skate!" Unfortunately the video and audio aren't completely synched up, but anyway such a charming moment!

Did they ever find his body after he disappeared?

Fortunately he managed to escape! I last saw him on the stream as a coach at Neblehorn. Nice fellow, very supportive to his skaters.
