That's Alberto, The Ice Emperor.

He's getting a bit long in the tooth by now, but back in the day I
think he won the annual ice race four years running.  It wasn't
unusual up until several years ago for the guys (and gals) to dress up
a bit, have a bit more fun with it than they do now.  A few of the
old-timers still do, but I think there were maybe two or three guys
that did it this year, including Alberto.

I think he placed second in his first two heats then got eliminated
somewhere around the quarter or semi-finals.

cheers,
frank
