Butter to Win…
Red Bull threw a pretty fun little contest the other night here in Stowe.
The Butter Cup had a unique layout. Basically it was a big half-pipe on the flats with box features in the middle. It was easily lit and super convenient right in front of the lodge. All in all a simple but neat idea.
Rome and Oakley helped out with prizes. Unfortunately, the Rome crew was in light attendance due to setting up for the Vegas show.
Fortunately I got myself out of that so I decided I was due for a night out in Stowe. The event was at the new Spruce Peak village so it was good to get inside some of the buildings I had not been in yet over there.
The event was pretty cool. Pun intended; I think it was like 10 below with gusts out of the South. More power to the kids that came out and brought the heat; they were also probably Tivo’ing the X-Games. Why sit at home in the warmth when you can get out there and give’r?

After-party at Piecasso. Sorry no Saturday night Karaoke (I don’t think I even saw Danger!) …

No karaoke, but a fun crowd nonetheless.
You have to love it when the after-party is at your regular Sat. hangout.
Butter Cup events are happening up and down the East Coast. Check out the Red Bull site here for upcoming dates and locations.
Props to all the people who worked the event that I will forget to name. Again it was super cold so they get those props heavy.
If you care who won Mary will probably have a story on Snowboardermag.com or something….
