Backstage at The Wailers. I don't care who you are, how old you are, or what type of music you like, The Wailers bridge every gap and were one of the best bands I've seen live. When they played "Natural Mystic" the whole crowd started moving in unison. Being backstage and seeing that was something I won't forget anytime soon.

Simon Dumont's first hit in the halfpipe finals. It brought the whole competition to another level and the crowd just went nuts. The whole vibe at the halfpipe was cool. It ran smoothly and the pipe got rave reviews from all the athletes. People were stomping their feet, bouncing up and down to stay warm and just screaming their heads off.

Casey Puckett in the final heat of skiercross. That race was spectacular. It had everything; passes, crashes, and a photo finish. Seeing Daron Rahlves and Casey Puckett duke it out in that course was as exciting as skiing gets.

Tommy Lee spinning at the VIP party. I don't know if he was actually spinning, more like he was dancing and making the ladies go crazy. Especially when he ripped of his shirt. That whole party was out of this world…there's a whole room devoted to rock climbing. It's like walking into a cave. I left early and it was 4:30 in the morning.

The Honda Ski Tour Girls. Part of my job this weekend was hanging out with six models who flew in from L.A to represent The Honda Ski Tour. The girls were great and the looks they got wherever they went blew my mind. I'd always wondered what it would be like to hang out with models…now I know and it was pretty cool.
