Remember Robert Vietze? I don’t know how you couldn’t, as it’s clearly a very important name!
Actually, if it wasn’t for linking, we probably wouldn’t know it either, so we understand your confusion.
Nonetheless, Robert Vietze, drunken pee-er of the skies extraordinaire, has some celebrity status to him, making his aviation urination inebriation celebration a bit more interesting. Vietze was a member of the United States’ ski team’s development squad. That’s a lot of words to say “practice squad.” However, the key word to keep in mind in the previous sentence is “was.” Why is that?
Because Vietze was given the ol’ heave-ho off the development team after the news of what seemingly happened in the yellow blue skies. So, at least he’s got that going for him. Wait, do practice squad people get paid, or do they have to stock shelves like Kurt Warner?
