It was section 118, row 11, seat one. A bit far up, but it was fine. I enjoy the show a lot.
How much interest can Alysa Liu revive in figure skating in the US?

And Alysa in Louis Vuitton at the Met Gala
I love the theme, especially as an athlete, because for me it’s all about the relationship with clothing and our bodies as an artistic medium,” says Liu, who is no stranger to sporting an expressive look on the ice. “I’m a figure skater—we are the winter artistic sport!”

Alysa Liu’s 2026 Met Gala Dress References Her Own Athletic Body
For her first Met, figure skater Alysa Liu donned a custom Louis Vuitton gown that emulates vascularity. “I love the theme as an athlete. It’s all about the relationship with our bodies as an artistic medium,” she says.
Hmmm - Louis Vuitton, Met Gala invitation.........what next?What I like about Alysa is that she doesn't make it all about the bag (literally and figuratively). She makes it all about the artistic expression. Absolutely the ambassador that figure skating needs!Get that bag (literally and figuratively) Alysa

Lovely post from Olivia Smart.
Great memories of Alysa in the borrowed red dress at the Beijing Olympic gala, contrasted with the red Louis Vuitton dress at the Met Gala!
Check out the comments! Alysa's run bodes well for the sport.
Even ITNY is playing to full houses these days.

I just got home from SOI and if the crowd there is any representation of interest in figure skating than I think we're moving in the right direction. I've been to 20+ SOIs over the years and I have never seen that large of a crowd. The only seats left were up in the nosebleeds and I do MEAN way up. Also, if this makes sense, I could tell there were a lot of people who weren't figure skating followers by the things they clapped for. Ilia did 2 quads and got good applause but the crowd went crazy when he did a backflip. Both Ilia and Alysa got loooooooooong standing ovations and the crowd in general was very supportive of all the skaters. It was one of the better shows I've seen in a long time.

Thank you @noskates for your review, I love when posters give their own rinkside impressions.
But this anecdotally of course is what I was hoping for (*hoping*, not predicting). Yes, other skaters are wonderful, but we need to be honest, Alysa is responsible for the sold out SOI. People come because of the buzz. They watch other skaters and love them too and want to watch more skating.

Alysa in W Magazine.
And maybe Alysa can start by making the following "not normal" for kids in skating.
"Literally, my whole life was just skating and scores. If I fell, life was over. If I took one day off, it was over,” she said. “I was always in fight-or-flight mode when I was a kid.”

Alysa Liu Never Wanted to Be Famous
After winning gold at the Winter Olympics, the figure skating champ is taking her star power beyond the rink.
