More than 100,000 people have visited the Saskatchewan Pavilion at the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver so far.

Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Dustin Duncan says, rain or shine, weekday or weekend, they have been lined up.

Initial projections were that about 5,000 people per day would pass through the pavilion.  However, so far, on average, more than 7,500 pass through each day.

Among the popular attractions is the green screen, where visitors can get their photo taken in front of a Saskatchewan backdrop.  Nearly 7,000 photos have been taken so far.

 

Another popular attraction at the Pavilion is a photo with the Mounties.  Two RCMP officers have been at the Pavilion on a rotating basis, and they are busy posing for photos the entire time they are there.

The most popular food item continues to be the bison burger, with more than 9,000 sold so far.
