I hope everyone has seen Cool Runnings. If you haven't, you're missing out. But even so, I think most people know the history of the Jamaican bobsled team.
While they might be one of the most famous bobsled teams ever, they actually haven't qualified for an Olympics since 2002. That was until this past weekend. The Jamaicans are back! It's only in the two-man competition, but nonetheless, they will be competing in Sochi.
IF they can raise $80,000 to cover their costs to get to Sochi. In order to do this, they've started a Crowdtilt account to help get the money. Anyone can go on and donate. I feel like they'll get it. But it sure would be disappointing if they don't.
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like Disney should at least give them a little bit of money? I mean, they did make plenty of money off Cool Runnings. I really think they should even sponsor the team. How great would that be?
Well, here's to hoping we see them marching in during that opening ceremony on Feb. 7!
