1998 | '98 GT King of Dirt contest in Beaumont, Texas. Butler qualifies in first place, and then proceeds to sit on the jumps getting drunk before the finals started. When it was time for the finals to get underway, Butler was completely sloshed and wound up getting last place. Schwinn was not stoked. Shaun isn't riding for Schwinn anymore. The split happened right after the 98 X-Games where Butler's bike got ripped off and had to borrow Aaric Dishaw's Gary Fisher to compete. "It was one of 20 incidents that led to his release" said Schwinn Team Manager John Paul Rogers. Shaun got a bike from S&M the day after his "release". | |
