Despite being a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Team USA’s Rai Benjamin was ‘chopped liver’ to a ‘random family from Canada,’ which fellow Olympian Noah Lyles found quite humorous
Sometimes getting home from the Olympics can lead to one heck of a reality check.
“Ate with this amazing random family from Canada,” Benjamin wrote alongside a photo of three people sitting at a table on Wednesday, August 21. “They knew who was. I was unfortunately chopped liver 😂😂😂😂.” In a lengthy Instagram post on Saturday, August 17, Lyles defended his girlfriend, Junelle Bromfield, who represented Jamaica in the women’s 400m and 4x400m relay in Paris, from “pure disrespect and hatred towards her from her own country.”
“It was a cult,” Lyles said on the “Everybody Wants to Be Us” podcast. “It just wasn’t at the level of, ‘Yeah, OK. We’re gonna drink the Kool-Aid.’ But it was super strict.”
