Love this young lady. A serious fun fan. Seeing the Olympics live and in person must be incredible.

She’s amazing. It’s so healthy to have a goal that you love working towards. People can criticize but she has a happier life than most! Go Girl

I hope that she gets to meet and greet the athletes ❤❤❤

Spent over 10K AND maxed her credit cards? That's commitment!!! As long as she's happy, good for her.

Good for you as long as you're happy! By 2028 it will be LA wont it? Just your hometown
