The Chicago Bears pulled off an impressive 24-18 victory over the LA Rams at Soldier Field on September 29. But it wasn’t only the action on the pitch that caught the fans’ attention. Making use of her Gold Over America Tour schedule, Simone Biles was present in the house and it looks like Bears loyalists are finally looking to accept the 7x Olympic gold medalist as one of their own.
The official NFL Instagram account shared snippets of the country’s most decorated gymnast’s presence at the game. Captioned, “The 11-time Olympic medalist in the building,” the September 29 IG post made it clear that Biles’ attendance was a special moment. Sporting a Bears sweatshirt, Simone looked suave and fans immediately joined hands to praise her for her fashion choice.
In the post’s comment section, Bears connoisseurs flocked to make their sentiments heard. Ash wrote, “OK, MS. BILES WITH THE PROPER FIT!!!!!” as the fan mirrored the ecstatic feeling of Chicago camp. “Simone Biles at Soldier Field to support her husband, Jonathan Owens,” says the first photo in the post, and the fans seem to be supporting the Olympic icon in return.
Another brief video clip shows Biles hugging her hubby at the sideline while also making sure the football safety looked spotless on his big day. While watching the love between the couple made fans go aww, it wasn’t just their mutual affection that prompted the Bears followers to commend the gymnast for showing up at the iconic stadium.
Simone Biles redeems herself in the eyes of more fans
Earlier this year, a fiasco ensued when the WCC gymnast showed up in a Green Bay Packers jacket at a Bears match. However, Biles looked tired of all the criticism coming her way and urged fans to cut her some slack instead. On the other hand, Chicago fans claimed that she should understand where they’re coming from and in turn opined that she should do better when it comes to picking her outfits. But now, as Biles seems to have finally found the correct stripes, Bears fans are looking to set things right as well.
Linda also proclaimed her love for the person who has brought the USA countless gold medals from international stages and went on to note how her outfit of the day was spot on. “Love her game day outfit,” commented the fan, highlighting how Biles is making up for ticking off Bears fans previously.
In early September, Simone was once again in the middle of a feud when her Jonathan Owens jacket made fans fume. The jacket showed Owens in a Packers jersey and fans weren’t having any of it. But this time, things were different, and Chicago loyalists wanted her to know that her today’s dress was a welcome move. “Finally she’s wearing some bear gear,” said Zex on X.
“Love the boots!!” gushed Eleanor as the fan brought attention to the Tara Davis-Woodhall-inspired footgear that Biles sported at the match today. The white boots turned a lot of heads at the Bears’ home ground, and another fan noted, “Those boots are iconic.”
Another fan-run page thinks Biles finally got the message about what the fans want and decided to cater to their demands instead of turning a deaf ear to the clamor. “Alright she got the message no more Packers gear even though yes I know she was just showing her boo love (and probably while a new Bears one was being made),” joked fan account in the comment section of the Chicago Bears X post.
What did you think about Biles’ outfit from today’s game? How do you think Owens will reciprocate his wife’s effort when she takes to the stage for the GOAT show later tonight? Tell us in the comments!
