Jamaican Bobsled Team Fails To Qualify For The Vancouver Games.

Attachment 613
The Jamaican national bobsled team, which gained acclaim in
its Winter Olympics debut at Calgary in 1988 and spawned a
Disney movie (Cool Runnings) loosely based on the experience,
did not qualify a sled for the Vancouver Games.

The team had spent the last few weeks hoping for a spot.
Hannukkah Wallace, the team’s driver, is ranked among the
top 50 drivers, and the squad benefited from sleds donated
by the American bobsledder Todd Hays. But a preliminary list
of qualifiers did not include the team, according to The
Associated Press.
