actually according to what i read, it was the folks from the olympic security thingy
okay heres the quote i was referring to:
"Olympic organizers had said the man was trying to send a love message to his wife by getting on TV"
from here:
http://www.cbc.ca/story/olympics/nation ... 40817.html
the original story was changed and the picture was added, etc
but basically they (olympic organizers) didnt release any info about what happened other than to say that he was canadian, had a lawyer and was in custody. his name, where in canada he was from, etc wasnt released and he was sending a msg to his wife..

not really
thats what the olympic security folks wanted us to think
he was actually advertising for some casino and not getting paid for it
