Mammoth Mountain World Cup 1992 pictures

[rutteger]

In the summer of 1992 I was lucky enough to be on holiday on the West Coast of the USA. As part of this holiday we managed a few days in Mammoth Mountain during the running of the Grundig World Cup, which was nice.
Here are a few of my photos. Apologies for the iffy quality.

Could be Beefy. Wasn't he caught up in one of his many tabloid scandals in '92? Maybe he was in Mammoth waiting for the heat to die down....

I have it on good authority that beefy was at Mammoth Mountain on that day.

The authority being no one else in the world has the sheer audacity and testicular fortitude to pull of a mullet like that

Beefy's mullet was good, but IMHO Chris Waddle's was better.

Although Beefy's went for the 'tash also which counts in his favour.

I always thought that Pat Sharp was the daddy.

Maybe Baggio's divine pony tail?
