      If I was ever in a particularly vile mood as a kid I would occasionally make her fall repeatedly throughout the entire routine, just to see her inexplicably anticipating an award of anything above the 0.0 that she would ultimately be served with.

    There's a fun glitch in this game where during the Figure Skating event, if you crash/kneel immediately and constantly, you'll get a perfect score.. possibly due to the permanent damage on the crushed knee bones or a negative 1 yields a score-wrap? You be the judge.
