Dan Jansen was a hero of mine growing up. Him and Bonny Blair. I loved watching the Winter Olympic games more so than the Summer. Speed Skating, Downhill Skiing, and Figure Skating mostly. the year I most remember was the year that Mr. Jansen and Ms. Blair lead the US team in Lillehammer in 1994. Following that Olympics I sent my first TTM requests to both of them, and each sent back a signed post card. It was one of the coolest things I got as a kid. Following true to form, Mr. Jansen send back his card in speedy fashion. I look forward to sharing stories with my son over this card.
Thanks Dan!
