Olympic Torch

This picture is a close-up of the Olympic Torch that is displayed in Rice-Eccles Stadium.  This torch was actually lit and used in the running of the torch here in the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics in 2002.  In a sense, it has recently been re-lit.  Within the display case, an amber-colored light was installed above the torch to give it the illusion of being lit.  White lights below it highlight the writing on the handle.  Whenever you're in the neighborhood, make sure you stop by this display in the tower of the stadium to check out the fine craftsmanship and beautiful history.
