  • Yes, Katarina Witt performed at the 1980 Lake Placid Games, beating Linda Frattiane in the Women's Figure Skating competition. And just before the closing ceremony, she skated to "Hello, Dolly" by Louis Armstrong. I know; I saw it all.

  • @pookerville That was at the 1988 Calgary Olympics, not Lake Placid 1980 (she did not compete at Lake Placid).

  • At the skating exhibition, I was surprised that East Germany's Katerina Witt dressed up in a flapper outfit and skated to Hello Dolly by Louis Armstrong! (Hello, Katerina! I heard Jim say!)

  • The person giving the speech was Lord Killanin the 7th IOC president. The announcer is Jim McKay.
