Remember about 8 or 9 years ago when they kicked mountain biking out of the Summer X Games because it wasn’t Xtreme! enough? It was about that time that I lost interest. Too much street luge, and the word ‘extreme’ had already jumped the shark at that point. Now a woman in Aspen is going for the Extreme Hugging Record at the Winter X Games. She needed to hug 5,001 people within 24 hours, and she set up her hugging booth at the base of the superpipe. I guess the X Games needs to work a little harder in an Olympic year.
