The Choker and the Tomato

Olympic snowboarding gold-medalist Shaun "the flying tomato" White finally got his wish to meet figure skating silver-medalist Sasha Cohen.
The duo spent about an hour chatting Tuesday night in the VIP room of Hollywood's LAX club, where White was hosting a victory party attended by 200 snowboarders, skaters, punk rockers and other friends, People magazine reported.
"She's cool, I just wanted to meet her in person," White, 19, told People.
He said the media during the Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, "made a big deal" about his having crush on Cohen, 21.
"I think she's cute, I just really wanted to meet her, that's all," he said. "It's just cool meeting another athlete. It was rad."
