Jason Brown

Me! ;). Of course!

Mariah! Jordan! Hannah Miller!

I know Jason is announced but I keep thinking he will be too exhausted and will bow out.

I do hope I'm wrong but he's flying back today and the show is Saturday night.

He might be flying straight to Chicago with his parents (the photo in the tweet he sent from the plane today showed the 3 of them). Then maybe it won't be so bad--a little TLC, home cooking and a ride to the show!
 
Yeah I'm assuming he will go straight to a Highland Park and as he's the energizer bunny he probably will be there. It's just such a long trip and such major jet lag....

I'll let you guys know!
 
Please keep us updated, Papagena, but if you see Jason in a red, white and blue onesie you may want to leave the rink:slink:
 
I thought we were calling it a gym bag?

And I have to confess. I have re-watched. . . . several times. . .many actually. It has grown on me a fair amount. I still think the outfit is a miss, but the program/concept I know like. I think some normal black practice pants and a normal hoodie would be great and improve the overall effect greatly. Hell, get a flag hoodie if he really wants. The thing is, he really does seem to enjoy this program and playing with it, so I want to see it again with a better outfit.
 
I'm loving gym bag, I just didn't know we could use it all the time;) And I do think the gym bag was just for patriotic WTT purposes, and it would be more in keeping with Team KoRo to have a glitterati hip hop outfit.

I have not been able to bring myself to re watch, but once I get home, I will give it a fair shot. No more complaining like with Cotton Eyed Joe: be careful what you wish for:drama:
 
I love that Jason is having such an awesome time in Japan! I think he is gaining even more Japanese fans from this trip, they are all commenting on how cute he is and how good his Japanese is on social media. And we know they in figure skating if you have lots of Japanese fans you are all set :biggrin:

I wonder how much he has drawn some fans in purely because they find it interesting/flattering that he speaks their language so well? And of course they then get even more hooked on his skating :love:

I know Finnish people would be all over some foreign celebrity who spoke our language, even if it was just a few words. Like when Meagan & Eric won Worls, some news outlets here were very keen to point out that she has Finnish roots and speaks Finnish. Literally some headers were "Finnish-speaking Canadian Wins World Championship". It was almost like "she's almost one of us, woohoo". It was sweet and embarrassing. :biggrin:
 
First of all, check out the original post on this thread. Doris recently a huge update on it as part of our Summer Fan Fest fete!

Be sure to let Doris or I know if there's anything you think we should add.

Lots of programs, threads and GS articles all about Jason.

Now get ready for some grade A.... ADORABLENESS!

A #tbt to @jasonbskates in honor of the end of another great season together! Thank you for so many years of your dedication to excellence, your tireless work ethic, your first class leadership, your commitment to integrity, your unduplicable humanitarian spirit, and your fierce loyalty to our journey together! @skate7k #teamusa #buildingdreams #loyalty #trust #wortheveryminute #thankyou

That sailor hat is too cute. :) And Kori is absolutely adorable too. I love the relationship they have.
 
Oh I remember that! He said Jason and Kori were cool people and also said really nice stuff about his skating.
 
I am re watching videos from the fabulous update that was done for us.

I encourage you to watch the US Nationals SP from 2012. It is fun to listen to all the wonderful things Johnny Weir (I think that is the voice) has to say. Ohh how things have changed.

Yes, but back then Jason was just a little cutie pie who was no real threat to anyone.

Then Johnny figured out that Jason is better than he was.
 
Well if all what you say is the case, then Jason will probably do what Johnny noted he does (stay cool) and not bother with it. It's really not his problem.
 
We just finished updating Jason's OP.
Thank you Doris and whoever-else-assisted with the update:bow:
I also liked reading the earliest threads; how interesting that even 14 year old Jason was described as having the "it" factor. :rock:
 
Austrian pairs skater Miriam Ziegler gives Jason a shoutout in her interview with the Skate Guard blog. (I can't link it here unfortunately but you should find the interview in a Google search).

Another great skater is Jason Brown, who I think has the most interesting programs and transitions. I admire his attitude on as well as off the ice.

Jason gives a shoutout to his hometown team, DA BEARS. :)
