Golden Moments (and not those in the pool)

30 August 2004, 18:29

Now, I am the Queen of Foot-in-Mouth – something goes in my head the same moment it comes out of my mouth. So it is with a sense of vindication that I present the Top 3 Olympic Commentator Slips…

3. [Seven Commentator – Swimming] ”... Hackett has pulled away in the last 50 minutes.” (metres anyone?)

2. [Seven Commentator – Volleyball] ”...and a great spike from Pothead… erm, Pottharst.” (Beach volleyball)

1. [Olympic Announcer – Diving] ”...and the gold medal, representing Australia….... Loudy Tourky!” (except Loudy had won diving bronze, Chantelle Newberry the gold)
[Seven Commentator] ”...it doesn’t matter, she knows who she is.”

2. I found this and thought you would get a kick out of it Some of the more fun ones: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing." "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field."
