Scotty Lago Medal Pics Send Him Home
Snowboarder Scotty Lago won bronze on Wednesday night, but it was what he did afterward that's really causing a stir. The 21-year-old Lago had pics leaked of himself and a young lady having a good time after the podium, and they've turned into quite an embarrassment.

The pictures show Lago having his medal bitten by the young lady, as well as dangling a medal below his waist as the young woman gives it a kiss. It's not unsurprising behavior coming from a young man who just had perhaps the best night of his life, but it was enough to raise the ire of the U.S. Olympic Committee and the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association.
Both of the organizations are still on edge after an incident in 2006, when freestyle skier Jeret "Speedy" Peterson got into an alcohol-fueled incident following his competition.
Lago has apologized to the U.S. Olympic Committee and the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association, and is headed back home.
