Shaun White, Olympic snowboarder, was arrested for public intoxication and vandalism after he pulled a fire alarm and breaking a phone at a hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. He was arrested after trying to leave the hotel in a cab and kicking a hotel guest who tried to stop him from leaving. According to the police reports White was extremely intoxicated and smelled of alcohol and his eyes were red and bloodshot. One hotel guest called the police. When he told White that he had called the authorities, White tried to attack him. He was released from jail on Monday evening. What do you think of this?

You meant this to go into the forum I think.
Personally, this is sad. Shaun may be a role model to many people, because he proved that he could make it to the Olympics. The sad part is that he was "stupid" enough to go waste some of his life that he won't get back, by making wrong choices. We don't want to make stupid mistakes that we can't change, just because we are temporarily upset. I wonder if this will effect his participation in the next winter Olympics.
