Olympic Hopeful Kicked Off Team After Plane Incident

By Rocky Thompson on August 15th, 2011

An 18-year-old member of the U.S. Ski Team was cut loose after it was reported that he drank 5 or 6 beers, a couple rum and cokes and then got on a red eye bound for New York from Portland. Shortly after the flight was airborne he walked up a few rows and peed on the floor next to a young girl’s chair while her father was in the bathroom. The skier was an Olympic hopeful, but it gets hard to hold onto sponsors and train full time when something like this gets attached to your name. Too bad he’s not a snowboarding hopeful.

    Yeah that line about snowboarding wasn’t very witty if that’s what you were aiming for, should have come up with a joke about Bode Miller at the very least.

    The snowboarding line was funny. It was funny because skiing has been consider an older generations winter sport. Snowboarding is cool and young. Young people get drunk and pee all over the place (i know, i urinated on my neighbors truck tire last night). Most jokes are no longer funny once they have been explained.
