Simone Biles is set to return to her hometown of Houston this weekend, bringing her Gold Over America Tour to the city after crisscrossing the nation. The excitement is palpable as the seven-time Olympic gold medalist prepares to perform in front of her hometown crowd. Biles herself is clearly thrilled about this stop, and the Houston Rockets are joining in on the fun, showcasing their excitement in a unique way.
The Gold Over America Tour has been a spectacle throughout its run, drawing attention from fans and even other athletes like tennis legend Serena Williams. Now, the preparations for the Houston stop are in full swing, and no detail is being overlooked to make Biles feel at home. The tour’s official Instagram account recently posted a lighthearted video on October 15, showing the Houston Rockets’ mascot, Clutch, trying his hand at gymnastics to impress Biles. While Clutch didn’t quite stick the landing on the vault, his floor routine did manage to get a smile from Biles. However, she teased that he still has a long way to go before he can join the tour.
Biles also took the opportunity to remind her fans that the Gold Over America Tour will be performing at Houston’s Toyota Center on October 19, encouraging them to mark their calendars for the big event. With the show already having wowed audiences across the country, it’s anticipated that Biles will have something special planned for her hometown crowd, making them a part of her incredible journey.
This highly anticipated homecoming comes after Biles had a chance encounter with another sports icon. On October 13, during the tour’s stop in Duluth at the Gas South Arena, tennis star Serena Williams, along with her husband Alexis Ohanian and their daughter Olympia, attended the event. The Reddit co-founder shared their experience on Instagram, and Biles expressed her excitement at having such a legendary figure in the audience.
Adding to the excitement for Biles, her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, has just returned from London following the NFL’s international series. After spending time apart, the couple reunited, and Biles couldn’t help but express her joy at how Owens always manages to spoil her. This reunion has likely lifted Biles’ spirits even more as she prepares to take the stage in Houston.
As Biles returns to her hometown, fans are eagerly awaiting what she and the rest of the gymnasts on the tour have in store. With such high energy and excitement surrounding the event, Houston is sure to be treated to something extraordinary. Fans are invited to share their expectations and excitement for the upcoming performance, which promises to be a highlight of the tour.
