Do you get to keep the torch, or do you have to buy it if you want it?

I feared it might look like the previous opening ceremonies! I saw Zach had to climb up to get on the rising platform, was he supposed to be on it and then it rise up? He did a great job!

Let's just say his mom hasn't stopped bugging hom about it. They PVR'd it and keep replaying that for him! He still denies it...
