Konstantin Ernst, chief creative director of the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, wears a T-shirt with the Olympic rings where one of the five rings is a snowflake during a news conference on the last day of the Olympics in Sochi, Russia, Sunday, Feb. 23, 2014. The T-shirt is a reference to the opening ceremony, when five snowflakes were supposed to open up into the five Olympic rings, but one failed to open. Ernst was met with applause and laughter when he took off his jumper at the press conference, revealing the T-shirt with the glitch. (AP Photo/Dorothee Thiesing)
