Weekend Update with Norm MacDonald …..Norm MacDonald …..Kerry Strug Kippy Strug…..Chris Kattan Coach Bella…..Mark McKinney Norm MacDonald: For many of us who watched, the greatest moment of the Summer Olympics was the winning of the gold medal by the Woman’s Gymnastic Team. Here with me now are Kerry Strug and her brother Kippy. Kerry Strug: Thanks for having us on the show, Norm! Kippy Strug: [ hyper ] Yeah, thanks! Norm MacDonald: So, Kerry.. Kerry, let me start with you. What was going through your head as you were getting ready for that second vault. Kerry Strug: Well, I was really nervous. But at the same time, I knew that I had to stay focused. And I knew that if I stayed focused, we might have a good chance of winning. Norm MacDonald: Now, uh.. Kippy. You were there that night. What was going on through your mind? Kippy Strug: Well.. first, I was really excited! But, then she hurt her ankle, and I got really nervous – on top of being excited! But I was just hoping she can keep her focus.. so I said a little prayer! Kerry Strug: You said a little prayer? Kippy Strug: I said a little prayer! Kerry Strug: That’s so sweet! Kippy Strug: I know it is, isn’t it! Norm MacDonald: Now, Kerry, what’s in store for you now? Kerry Strug: Well, right now I’m really busy, because I’m starting school. And, on top of that, I also have a lot of opportunities. Kippy Strug: What? That’s so weird! Because, after you hit the second vault, I said another prayer for you to get a lot of opportunities! Kerry Strug: You did? you said another prayer? Kippy Strug: Yeah, I said another prayer! Kerry Strug: That’s so sweet. Kippy Strug: I know it is, isn’t it!
