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.

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

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...

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

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 :sadPooh:

 

Anyway he'll be fine without Pooh, as he was in Sochi, too.:tumblr_inline_nhkezsTB3v1qid2nw:
