In February 2002, VC brought its profanity-free ruckus to 10,000 fans at the Winter Olympics. The historic gig came about by way of yet another off-the-radar show, a National Association for Campus Activities conference held at Nashville's famed Opryland Hotel. A Utah promoter caught VC's set and immediately offered the group a slot in Salt Lake City.

"At first we were like, 'Yeah, right,' but we kept in contact, and before I knew it, we were on our way out there," Thomas says. "You never know what show is gonna lead to another. You just never know who's gonna be out in the audience."
