26-year-old French snowboarder dressed in a tiger suit and pawed in the air for her final Olympic heat

• French snowboarder Lucile Lefevre competed in her final Olympics on Monday.
• Lefevre was injured and could not do tricks, so she donned a tiger suit on one run and pawed in the air.

France's Lucile Lefevre decided to have some fun on the final day of her Olympic career.

Heading into Monday's big air event, Lefevre, 26, had injured her knee and knew she could not throw down her usual tricks. However, Lefevre had already decided Beijing would be her final Olympics, so she wanted to compete anyway.

On her second run of the day, Lefevre donned a tiger suit she borrowed from Swiss snowboarder Nicolas Huber, according to ABC, and took off.

Lefevre got modest air and pawed in the air for her trick.

According to ABC, Lefevre told reporters afterward that she didn't think her air-pawing looked good, so on her third and final run, she simply waved to the judges.

Lefevre finished last in the event but became a fan-favorite along the way. She told reporters, "Everyone wants a picture with me."
