An incredible snowboarding career has finally ended for the legend Shaun White. In his final run at the Beijing Winter Olympics, the three-time Olympic gold medalist finished fourth in the halfpipe event. Although he didn’t expect his career to end on such a note after all his remarkable achievements, everyone is so proud of him for what he has contributed to the sport of snowboarding.

The first thing Shaun White did after coming back from Beijing was to fly to Los Angeles for a super bowl game. “I’m going straight to the Super Bowl,” said Shaun in an interview after his halfpipe event in the Beijing Winter Olympics.

The 35-year-old was quite excited about the super bowl match as he has never been in an actual live game. He said, “I’ve never been, and I had it on my bucket list. I’ve never been to the Super Bowl because it’s always kind of during our time on the mountain and in our season. So like right away, I get to check something off my list.”
