It's been in the 30s in Russia for most of Friday. And yet there are still teams dressing as if they're in their homeland. These athletes might just be the real heroes of the Winter Olympics.
Bermuda is wearing their traditional shorts and socks combo. In Russia. In winter.
The Bermuda team might be sporting shorts, but the team from the Cayman Islands have one-upped them. Yes, they are wearing flip-flops.
Also, the Cayman Islands team gets bonus points for their jubilant color scheme.
Considering the club music soundtrack that accompanied most of the procession of nations, maybe the Cayman Islands team's outfits make more sense than we first thought.
