X Games isn't just about big air, big crashes and solid gold. That is unless your referring to the DC Gold Standard affair ongoing at the Standard Hotel in Downtown L.A.

The Standard is the general epicenter for all things epic on the X Games party scene. Scenic skylines, sensationaly beautiful women and enough free drinks to make the most manic depressive smile till dawn.

This year DC, Monster Energy and New Era teamed up to book out the whole Standard Hotel, filling its rooms with athletes, team managers and loads of hotties (affiliations TBD).

From there your imagination can fill in the blanks, but it was a nice kickoff to what will surely be another amazing round of entertaining endeavors inherent in the after hours lifestyle of X Games 15.
