Here are a few of the moments that really stood out and are worth keeping an eye out for when NBC does finally air the ceremony later Friday night.
U.S. parties Gangnam Style
As the parade of nations commenced, pop music blared from the speakers at the Olympic stadium, setting a modern-day soundtrack complete with a line of kids dancing along the path nonstop, creating a feeling of a well-behaved party.
And then, because of course, the 2012 mega-super-worldwide smash hit song "Gangnam Style," sung by South Korean superstar Psy hit. It immediately brought back memories of its viral moment, and, in a moment of hilarious coincidence, it accompanied Team USA's entrance.

Adding to the moment, cameras cut to U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, who is not exactly known for letting loose, waving to the team as "Gangnam Style" rang through the stadium.

Tonga Guy is back
Yes, well-oiled Tongan machine Pita Taufatofua is back at the Winter Olympics after his steamy shirtless appearance at the opening ceremony for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio. Taufatofua competed at those Olympics in Taekwondo, but he also took up cross-country skiing so he could participate in these Olympics. He's only the second Tongan to participate in a Winter Olympics.
And he didn't disappoint his fans on Friday, showing up shirtless, despite temperatures just below freezing.

More flag bearer fun
Taufatofua wasn't the only flag-bearer who had some fun on Friday. The team from Bermuda might not have gone shirtless, but they stayed committed to their identity and donned shorts for the ceremony.

A United Korea
Not to let things get too silly, the parade of nations also gave us a moment of unity, as North and South Korea walked out as a single, unified team under one flag. The two countries are competing as one for these games, a sign of peace afters years of tense relations.
