Simone Biles hit the field for her debut as a cheerleader for the Houston Texans on Sunday.
The Olympic gold medalist was the first person to be made an honorary Texans cheerleader in the squad’s history. The famous cheerleading squad posted a video on YouTube of Simone being gifted their signature red boots.
“Simone, as our first honorary Houston Texans cheerleader, we’d like to present you with some legendary red boots,” one cheerleader said as they passed the boots from teammate to teammate until they finally landed in Simone’s hands.
The 20-year-old gymnast shared her excitement following her boot ceremony on her Instagram account on Saturday.
“Officially ready for game day now that I got my legendary red boots,” Simone wrote with a photo of the red boots and a red pompom.
Simone’s fellow cheerleaders for the day wanted to make sure she felt at home so they even gave Simone her own locker for the weekend.
“HTC Simone aka @SimoneBiles sees her locker for the first time!,” the cheerleader’s account said.
