Even though Simone Biles is one of the most recognized athletes in the world, she still was mistaken for a child on a recent flight. The Olympian said she was even offered a coloring book by a flight attendant, an occurrence she says happens more than you might think.
She stands 4'8" so it's easy to think she's younger than she is. She was in Washington DC to receive the Presidential Medal of Honor. On the plane a flight attendant offered her a coloring book to keep her busy. She posted online: I'm 25!
The woman must have felt rather embarrassed as a different flight attendant came over to offer her a mimosa!
