Wisconsin’s warm welcome to a freezing Biles

Being a Texas native, Simone Biles isn’t used to very cold temperatures. Thus, the highly flexible gymnast found herself squeezed and freezing in the cold weather of Wisconsin. It was On October 29, Jonathan Owens’ Green Bay Packers locked horns with the Minnesota Vikings, on a windy day, where Biles was present. She later posted on X, “I’m NOT built for cold weather.” She even asked for suggestions for proper clothing to battle the same. However, she found a soothing comfort among the Packers’ fans.
