Jordan Chiles is enjoying a spectacular year. She won a medal of each color at the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile. Chiles claimed the gold in the team event, the silver in the women’s vault, and the bronze in the women’s all-around in gymnastics. Aside from playing a starring role in a triumphant Pan-American Games, she fulfilled another dream.

Jordan Chiles got to be a flag-bearer at a major international event for the first time. She got to carry the Stars and Stripes, along with Vincent Hancock, during the opening ceremony. Hancock is an Olympian and a shooter. He has three gold medals in skeet shooting at three different Olympic Games. Now, Chiles will get the chance to complete another item on her bucket list.

The 22-year-old shared a story on Instagram featuring an image of a giant turkey. Taking center stage in that image were the words, “Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade,” in a red star with a gold outline. Adjoining the image were the words, “Happy Thanksgiving! Don?t miss the #macysparade on @nbc, starting tomorrow at 8:30 AM EST. Bucketlist item loading! Catch me representing the Olympics during the parade #parisolympics.“

Aside from Jordan Chiles, a number of stars will grace the current edition of the parade. There are a number of musical performers lined up for the same. That list includes the likes of Cher, Pentatonix, Ashley Park, Amanda Shaw, and so on. Cher will be the final performer during the parade, set to go on just before Santa Claus arrives in his sleigh.

Jordan Chiles will not be the only sportsperson to be part of the festivities in this manner.
