MMM...Bronze Is Harder Than Gold
NYdailynews - A snowboard bronze medalist from New Hampshire is kissing the Olympics goodbye after risque photos emerged of a girl kissing his medal hello. Halfpipe boarder Scotty Lago volunteered to leave the Vancouver Games amidst the sneers of Olympic officials reacting to photos of a girl kissing his medal - which was affixed to his pants and covering his crotch. There was a second photo of Lago holding the medal in his hand as the attractive young woman bit down on it as if to prove the authenticity of the bronze, while teammate Greg Bretz looked on.Men's halfpipe snowboarding is over and Lago was not set to compete again at these Winter Games.
Man I totally missed the boat on this whole snowboarding thing. I mean when I was like 12 and skiing my ass all over Ski Brule in northern Wisconson, I thought snowboarders were just Jinco wearing losers who would disappear like pogs did in the late 90's. Shit, turns out I was wrong. Apparently coming in third place gets you blown in public. Fuck my life. I knew buying those snowblades instead of that snowboard was a mistake.
