Much away from professional gymnastics, Jordan Chiles is now in the pop-themed entertainment show, called the Gold Over America Tour (GOAT). Rubbing her shoulders with ‘big sister’ Simone Biles and other prominent gymnasts, she has shown up there with her scintillating turns and moves. However, in the meantime, she is also keeping tabs on the different avenues, such as appearing in Lumen Field. 

Today was the game day between the Seattle Seahawks and Miami Dolphins. However, the host Seahawks thumped the Dolphins by a 24-3 scoreline in its den. But the day had been flagged off by Jordan Chiles. The Vancouver, Washington native appeared in Lumen Field to show her support for the home team. On such a coveted occasion, she bore a special title. 

The football team entrusted Jordan with the task of raising the 12th-man flag before the game kicked off today. With her usual ‘hype’ character, the Olympian acted on the responsibility, raising the flag and motivating the crowd to support the squad. Later in her Instagram story, Chiles put a message for the home team, “Let get it!!! @seahawks”  Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks extended the hype to another level by releasing a video message from the 23-year-old.

In the 11-second long snippet, the multiple Olympic medal winner can be heard thanking the team for giving her such an opportunity. Furthermore, she praised the energetic atmosphere at Lumen Field to augur well with the importance of the football battle between the Seattle Seahawks and the Miami Dolphins. That might have been the reason to draw her to the venue, despite her busy schedule because of the GOAT tour.

As per the schedule, after showing up at Lumen Field, Chiles had to fly 1,126 km away to Salt Lake City. The reason that made her cross the distance on such short notice is the September 23 scheduled GOAT occasion. It is on the chart to take place in Maverik Center. However, Chiles seemed to take no offense to that. Rather, it was another time after the Paris Olympics when she appeared in the field of a different sport to flag off the match. 

Jordan Chiles is winning hearts away from her gymnastics mat 

On September 6 this year, Jordan Chiles appeared at Citi Field to do the honor of tossing the first pitch in a major league baseball game. In the home game of the New York Mets against the Cincinnati Reds, the member of the Olympic gold medal-winning women’s gymnastic squad wore the no. 23 Mets jersey. Additionally, her Nike shoe caught the attention because it belonged to a series that was not previously seen.

According to the specialists, it was from the Nike Air Max series, a special edition with a new structure and logo. However, Chiles teased the interest by posting a snap of the sneakers on social media. However, in Citi Field, her throw couldn’t reach home plate, but the tone was clear. It is regarding her loss of the Olympic bronze medal in the women’s floor exercise. Despite facing several blows on the issue, Jordan Chiles is still standing in front of the storm, undeterred. And through appearing on such occasions, she is proving that the support is with her anyway. Isn’t it? What do you think about it?
