Even if Disney decided to pay IOC, the legal part of the whole process would take more time to manage than just three weeks. It's just too unrealistic. 

 

Whats the penalty if Disney didn't pay IOC but went ahead to display their brand? 

I really wonder how IOC will abide by the rules for no Pooh for Yuzu. Can't they make exception because even if the rules say the brand has to be sponsors for Olympic, they'll see a hoard of Poohs in the stands anyways... and knowing his current status as a figure skater which can be equivalent to Ronaldo or Messi as quoted from BESP uncles, can't they do something about it 

Am I the only one who thinks that the absence of Pooh at Olympics is not an issue of vital importance? Yuzu survived Sochi without Pooh with 3 brilliant perfomances (SPx2 and EX), so although I wholeheartedly wish he could take Pooh to Olympics I don't feel it will influence his perfomances at all. 

 

 

I don't want to seem like a killjoy but he managed without Pooh at Sochi?  He's not the sort to want special arrangements made for him?

It was his EX, they could have chosen PW at least.

Maybe they thought it was overused?  or they just needed that kind of pose from Yuzu.

he really doesn't need it but the fact that Disney noticed is gold and we're just trying our luck

He's an athlete that doesn't want celebrity treatment and thats why many people respect him. My opinion was just out of curiosity

And it already seems not the same without the pooh squish though he became to do it only last season if I remember correctly.

Disney was extremely slow noticing it, Pooh rains have been fallling for quite a long time already

Maybe he's training to be Pooh-less during this one month at TCC

I do wonder, though, how Javi's Mickey got through. Maybe as long as it doesn't visibly say Disney, it's not an issue? Yuzu did have a pooh at the K&C that got thrown on the ice after his performance. 

 

Probably because Pooh is too visible at the board and especially in the kiss and cry, while Mickey not.

And in the kiss and cry, I think it makes a difference whether an athlete gets it as a present or intentionally uses it...

They'd have to pay a large fine probably...+ imagine the negative publicity they'd get. But it's also the athlete's responsilibity to comply with Rule 40 of the Olympic Charter...which says that they are not allowed to use their names/images etc for advertising purposes...though Yuzuru's case is special because he doesn't use (and never used) Pooh for this purpose 

 

Anyway he'll be fine without Pooh, as he was in Sochi, too.

I'm sorry  It's killing me too 

This is the best that have ever been said about LGC

"The way he brings the spins, you start to see Prince's music happening on the ice when you see Yuzuru Hanyu skate to it"
