2011 Grand Prix Final: Shibutani's free dance
Dec. 11, 2011: Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani's free dance at the ISU Grand Prix Final in Quebec City, Canada.
By her own admission, Maia Shibutani has wasted some time playing video games lately. But in the process of wasting time, she produced a winning tweet:
"I got 1,031,268 points while escaping from demon monkeys in Temple Run. Beat that! #yay #timewellspent #not"
With 53 percent of readers' votes, that tweet had just enough momentum to defeat Nathan Adrian (46 percent) and Dave Zabriskie (one percent), thereby earning Shibutani her first Tweet of the Week victory.
In other words, #timewellspent.
