Louie Vito Retires!

Posted: Tuesday, November 24, 2009 | | Labels:


"Dancer" Louie Vito will be performing his "Retirement Dance" tonight, Tuesday, November 24th at 9pm Eastern Time / 8pm Central Time on ABC's hit TV Show Dancing With The Stars. It will be his final dance as he will retire from his dancing career and will return to his day job of snowboarding. This last dance will be an "interesting" dance but Louie and his partner Chelsie Hightower are keeping mum on what exactly this dance will entail.

We know for sure that this dance will not be judged so there may some snowboard tricks incorporated in the performance.

It has been stated that if this "competition" had been determined soley on votes alone ... Louie would still be in. So thank goodness it wasn't otherwise Louie may have won this thing!

One thing is for sure, Louie has been working out hard with his personal trainer and he will be ready and anxious to begin his halfpipe training camp with the U.S. Snowboard Team this Friday at Copper Mountain, CO.

The first Grand Prix (which is also the first Olympic Trial) will be Friday and Saturday, December 11th and 12th. Louie has won the overall Grand Prix title the last two years in a row but this year may be a bit more meaningful. The top four Grand Prix place finishers (out of the five Grand Prix competitions this year) will be rewarded with a spot on the U.S. Olympic Halfpipe Snowboard Team.

"Thanks for all your votes - it truly meant a lot to me." Louie Vito
