On January 6th, 1994 a tall man in a leather jacket attacked figure skater Nancy Kerrigan with a baton before fleeing head first through a glass window. Who was this kneecap bashing mad man and another skater Tonya Harding be involved in planning the attack? Or was Tonya too just a victim of her ex husband Jeff Galooly and the men who planned out this crime? These were just some of the questions leading into the 1994 Winter Olympics.

They both would skate but would Nancy or Tonya win the gold?

The ending would be almost as unbelievable as the beginning— this is the story of Nancy Kerrigan, Tonya Harding and the 1994 Winter Olympic Games
