Join host Shawn King as he chats with Ross Rebagliati, Olympic gold medal winner for Men's Snowboarding at the 1998 Winter Olympics. After winning the gold, Ross was found to have Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in his circulatory system following a blood test and he was automatically disqualified. This decision was eventually overturned, largely on the basis that marijuana was not on the list of banned substances, and Rebagliati was given back the medal. The next day he appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and became an instant icon to many. Since that day, Ross has become a cultural phenomenon in the marijuana world and is an outspoken advocate of medical cannabis. He is also the brand ambassador and face of the Ross’ Gold™ and Legacy by Ross Rebagliati™ brands.
