FIL World Luge Championships 1995

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The FIL World Luge Championships 1995 took place in Lillehammer, Norway on 4–5 February.

The event was criticized for low spectator turnout, and accordingly, lacklustre marketing. Rudi Größwang claimed that the opening ceremony, which took place at the luge track and not in Lillehammer city, only had 5 spectators who were not competitors.[1]
