Rusty Hanger Awards

[Doggygirl]

Well, all we can do at this stage is "nominate." However I'm beginning to think Brian Joubert is trying to get more than one Rusty Hanger award at a single competition assuming this is his short program costume, and he wears the bondage thing again in the long.

In fairness, I don't know what his music is for the short, so maybe there is a connection that would make this work??

Spider Man?

According to his biography at ISU his short program is to "Music Selection by the Blue Men Group." I'm, uh, not familiar with that piece. But I'm sure the Spidey outfit is appropriate. Or maybe it's just Halloween.

Mathman,

The Blue Men Group are just that...men painted blue. :yes: You may have seen them in commercials a few years back. Anyone remember what the commercials were for?

My husband saw the Blue Men Group in Vegas. He really like their show.
I thought it would be too noisy, so opted for Riverdance instead.

Oh My... Weiss has officially entered this competition IMO

Gotta add another nominee here.

On Joubert, I have this vision of a cowboy in the background lassoing his leg right before he starts spinning in the jump.

I suspect we might see some good nominations for Ice Dance by tomorrow morning.

I think that Weiss was tryiing for a tatooed look. Instead he got the look instead...

 

[Kasey]

I like Weiss...but the costume is no better live than it is in pictures...SIGH. Brian's long program costume is MUCH better than his short...that's kinda, um, bad!

New Rusty Hanger Category - Over use of Illusion fabric

I'm nominating Elena in this category. Unfortunately I can't link to the picture directly. It's on this site.

On the upper left of the screen there is a "search" box. Type in Skate America. When I saw it, it was on the first page of Skate America pics. Hope those "X's" are in the right spots.

Michael had his name designed onto the shirt just so it wouldn't get mixed up with someone else's costume.

Okay, here is the picture you wanted to show:

LOL Rgal...

When I pulled up that podium pic, not realizing Michael's name was on the shirt (thanks for the close up) I nearly died laughing!!!!! Yep. I'm sure you're right!!! I bet male skaters the world over are busy deviously considering how they can steal that shirt!!!



Thanks for the Elena nomination pic as well. Am I the only one who thinks these costumes are "out there???"

that's not good I like him too but I hate what I have seen of his costume

 

[Antilles]

I can't believe he has his name written across his chest. What was he thinking?!!!

 

[Doggygirl]

Well Antilles...

That's an interesting question about why he would want his name on the front of his shirt.

Now that I think about it, he's getting older!! Just like me!!! I don't know about him, but I am getting more forgetful these days. The only mistake I think he made is not having his address put on there too.

Doggy, I tried that site and it said I wasn't allowed to see it??

Hi GR Granny...

RGal found this copy that is easier to access...

Enjoy!! (or not as the case may be!)

[Grgranny]

Thanks. I love the color of the dress but really don't care for the costume.

 

[Doggygirl]

I love that color too!

In fact, purple is my favorite color on the whole planet! (well, maybe not for a car or a house, but you know what I mean )

Here is a better example IMO of a terrific purple costume!

I like Alissa's costume - third one down from the top.
