After the short program (and I mean short...) everyone scattered. What happened to the good ol' days of Russkij Den' when there would be fierce competitions between parishes to win the trophies? What happened to the times when you would have Liturgy right next to the Jack Rabbit hearing the cars go by every minute with screaming people? Those were the days....is there anyone out there that thinks the same?
