Who said the hammer and sickle were consigned to the past

Disguisting. I wonder Uncle Joe made an appearance. I wonder what the athletes from the former Warsaw Pact countries and countries that Stalin swallowed up, for example the Baltic states, thought when they saw they.

I see a sickle, but no hammer. In any case, give it a friggin’ rest, commies.

Appears the hammer is towards the top of the pic. It’s what the chain holding the sickle is attached to.

Did they also portray Cossacks sacking Jewish villages?

When ever you see the Hammer and Sickle beware of the Shackles and Chains to follow.

That would be Ralph Lauren, but your description is not far off the mark.

If I was a competitor at the Olympics I would feel like Ralphie from A Christmas Story about now.

no they skipped that....that said the soviet portion had an odd theme....first hipsters then lovers and then wedding were described in english on the stadium floor....I did not know what to make of it. They used some soviet era cars to show the hipsters getting together as well.
