At least he had the sense to apologize to the U.S. Olympic Committee and the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association after these cringe-worthy pictures were published by the celebrity news website TMZ.

What seems like "innocent fun" could bite you in the posterior, kids. I hate to think what these silly kids might have done if he had won gold.
