The Tribune relives the heady days of the 2002 Winters Olympics in pictures — with a daily gallery from the torch relay to the Opening Ceremony, from Team USA's medal haul to the fireworks-filled finale.

Feb. 13 • Norway's Kjetil Andre Aamodt makes Olympic history by edging American Bode Miller for gold in the men's combined event to win a record sixth Alpine medal at the Olympics, while Switzerland's Simon Ammann and Norway's Ole Einar Bjoerndalen each wins his second gold of the Games — Ammann in ski jumping and Bjoerndalen in biathlon. The figure skating scandal grows when the French Olympic team says its nation's judge was pressured to vote for the Russians in the pairs competition, and Sylke Otto leads another German sweep of the women's luge.
