Michelle Kwan

 One of Mr. Hunter's most favorite figure skaters is Michelle Kwan,
and it turned out that the ladies' free skate at the U.S. Nationals also featured a ceremony inducting Michelle Kwan into the U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame.

That's Michelle Kwan in the yellow.


Brian Boitano had introduced her.

She was especially moved.
Some of my favorite Michelle Kwan performances:
