Replying to Skiers on MTV's Busted...episode might air next Monday?
Sparknotes:
Skoganskier101 and I set up a box at a grassy area at a school. Cop came, didn't have a problem, said MTV was filming for the show busted and told us them would come over. MTV and other cops come, film a bit, cop doesn't care. they leave. They organize to follow up interviews where they say that it didn't look like we actually got busted, so we had to say things that made it look like we were doing something illegal. We both got $200.
The episode might air next monday, but I dont know.
Full version:
Random Friday evening, skoganskier101 and I, upset at a cancelled early summer ski trip to a-basin and having nothing better to do, we go to a nearby school to a grassy hill area to put some ice rink snow down and a flat box, for an early summer rail session. (we were at the school, cause his backyard is flat and mine is far). About 5 minutes into the session, a cop shows up. Asks us all the usual questions and he has no problem with it. He tells us mtv is filming for a show called busted in that town tonight and that they might be over. Then he leaves. 5 minutes later the cops show up again, along with the mtv guys. The questions are asked again, and the cop doesn't care. We weren't doing anything wrong. They leave and do a small interview.
Later that week. Associate producer from mtv calls me and says they want a follow up interview. We agree. We get $100. We had to set up the rail again. I got some nasty afterbang shots I hope they use(seeing as how its mtv, they prob just show us falling). The interview sucked. They made us say a bunch of really stupid shit like:
"Skiing is my life!!!!!!!!"
"We thought it was all fun and games at first, but we could have seriously damaged the school grounds, or even injured ourselves."
which, walker(skoganskier101) said with blatant sarcasm, "We thought it was all fun and games at first, but we could have seriously damaged the school grounds, or even killed ourselves."
"when Im bored, all I think about is skiing"
more stupid lines like that. Pretty much every question has a line for you to say it's really fake and they add too much drama.
A week passes and we get another call from associate mtv producer guy and they want to do another interview. We agree seeing as how well get another $100 each. This time the questions are a little different. The Executive Producers didn't think that it looked like we were in trouble enough and they needed to add more drama to the segment to make it seem like we were doing something bad. So they made us say more stupid things like,
"If the cop wanted to be a dick, he could have def. charged us with criminal trespassing or vandalism of federal property" (we did nothing to the grass but water it during the drought)
Walker had to say since he's still in high school:"Getting busted for skiing at school doesn't look so good on a college application."
More stupid shit like that that is obviously fake...
So all in all the producer we filmed with was chill as shit and thought all the shit we had to say sucked(the exec producers write it all up). So I hear a preview for an episode aired tonight with us in it, so Im assuming it will air next monday.
