Morneau, who grew up in New Westminster, British Columbia, ran with the torch in nearby Vancouver before passing it on by swinging the torch like a baseball bat. "It's something that's once in a lifetime. Maybe I'll stick around to watch Canada beat Norway [in hockey] and then get ready for Spring Training," Morneau said. Morneau joined more than 12,000 Canadians who carried the Olympic flame for nearly 2,800 miles en route to its final destination Friday night at BC Place in Vancouver for the Opening Ceremonies. |
