This year’s Biles Invitational has received an incredible amount of support, with thousands of people turning up to participate. The three-day event began on February 1 and ends tomorrow at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. Amidst the chaos, the World Champions Center’s Instagram story shared an unexpected yet touching scene where Owens was seen assiduously helping gymnasts with their applications while sitting on a bench.
The video of the Green Bay Packers player being a part of his wife’s big event only got caught in the initial moment of a 180-degree panorama of the busy area where his braided hair and tattoos stood out in tee. Owens fit in perfectly, playing the volunteer part.
