Over 26,000 mentions on first day from press and Athletes staying there alone.

He just made the NBC national news with Brian Williams. Great pictures of Johnny Quinn. Very chiseled look.

Reagan only metaphorically took down Russian walls.

Johnny Quinn > Ronald Reagan

Technically, it was a door, not a wall.

Metaphoric wall > cheaply made Russian door?

Johnny Quinn's strength>Russian doors made of Chinese particle board.

It's The HULK, NO it's Johnny Quinn bringing new meaning to the words "Mean Green", breaking down walls/doors in Russia to represent the USA in the Olympic's!!!! Lou Ferrigno would have been proud!!!!

Go Johnny Quinn, Bring home the Gold!!!!

That list of tweets was so funny. I remember, after they announced the cities who had put in bids for the Games, and then later announced it was Sochi, thinking, "Well, that's odd." (And that's after I looked up Sochi, since it's not exactly a city you learn about in casual news updates over the years.) But I figured, since you have to provide a crapload of information in your presentation, whatever plan they had was sufficient enough for the committee to see how it was plausible. Obviously, what they provided to the committee also included a considerable amount of crack.

Stop it, both of you. This is why we can't have jokes with even the vaguest political connotations.

Couldn't you have put this in one of the 7 threads on Johnny's Door Smash in the Eagles Nest, instead?

And just where did you see the "Made In Red China" tag, Phil? (Still trying to discover where communism and socialism actually works among those who don't work).

Just a wild ass guess. Like where 90% of everything else is made.

If JQ medals, I see huge endorsement deals in his future.

He could even replace the big red pitcher in the cool-aid commercials.

[gksmith]

I can't believe no one has made this refernece:

Ahem....

Johnny Quinn goes BEAST MODE on that Russian bathroom door!

I also heard about someone taking the picture of the door and adding the Kool Aid Man busting thorugh. Very funny.

I tweeted that JQ is NOT a rock star in the habit of trashing hotel rooms.

Gold medal skater Kristi Yamaguchi posted this (my girlfriend was very amused when she found this and sent it my way) on twitter today.
