Money money money
Yeah, the torches were quite expensive. I believe they were around $350.00. Kris and Sandi decided to buy his, but some people didn't (Kris said there was a 15 year old girl on the bus and they asked if she wanted her torch, but being alone, without her parents to ask she said no. I don't know if she was asked earlier and then given a final chance or not. Some people have alreadybeen offered money for them. EBAY will be busy) They had 2 vans of runners ahead of the torch, and as you reached a pass off point the next torch bearer was dropped off. The flame was passed, and the torch bearer who had completed their portion got onto one of the 2 vans following the torch. It was very orchestrated down to the minute. There was a man videotaping the entire event. He had been with the torch since they lit it in Greece. He would get off of the van and the door would close. Then it would re-open and they would film the torch bearer getting off. What an event. And now it is off to play crib at the Legion. Have a good day
