Why do people do this to themselves?

After the whole Michael Phelps mess, you’d think Olympic athletes would learn. But no. Olympic snow boarder Scotty Lago decided to pose for some risque photos after his bronze medal win.

Bet this girl’s parents are proud. She got to bite Lago’s medal pinned to his crotch. How ’bout that.

Lago, on the other hand, was sent packing from the winter games for improper conduct.

“Got home this morning to all my homies,” he said on his Twitter site. “Such a good Olympic experience. Keeping my medal in a safe spot for now haha.”
