RIO DE JANEIRO — Aly Raisman has seen her parents the same way the rest of the world has — on the Internet.
After
helping the Americans to team gold on Tuesday, the veteran gymnast
joked about a video of her parents watching her routines making the
rounds online.
In it, Rick and Lynn Raisman tensely watch their daughter, squirming in their seats almost as if on a roller coaster.
“The
only time I see them is that video that’s literally everywhere. I can’t
believe it’s literally everywhere,” said Raisman, who hasn’t seen her
parents in a couple of weeks. “People are texting me more about my
parents than about me.”
That includes about Rick Raisman’s shirts, which some have noticed look familiar.
“It’s
so funny,” says Aly Raisman. “I’ve been making my dad wear the same
shirts that he wore in London for each competition because they’re good
luck.”
She’s hoping for a little more with the all-around
competition on Thursday. After that, she’ll finally get to see her
parents — and in person.
