From Tampere Palo-Pena is a familiar street man to many. He is the man of Tappara who has celebrated all the World Cup gold.
– Of course I still take the card to the team and roses. I took it for the first time in 1995. The 1965 Games were already watched, Pena said in the yard of Finland’s first ice rink.
Janina, Juuso, Maisa, Ville and Elisa came from Helsinki to see Haloo Helsinki and the Lion.
– Drummer Jukka Soldan is a cousin, but that gold was the main reason for coming to the folk festival, Elisa says.
– I had to put on a helmet when we come to Tampere, the guys laugh.

Ola, Purple, Day and Kata came from Keuruu to celebrate.
– Yes, it was worth coming, see JVG and Leijonat, a happy family laughs under the black rain clouds.
– The lions were sweaty, we were raining, Päivi laughs.
They also arrived from Tampere Maarit, Lilianna, Elmeri and Fellow.
– It’s awesome! Great games, great parties. Good and thank you, Lions!
