Simone Biles, Jonathan Owens embrace a snowy Sunday in Green Bay ahead of Packers-Chiefs game
GREEN BAY - Fans who are traveling to Lambeau Field for tonight's Kansas City Chiefs-Green Bay Packers game might not be loving today's snow, which is a little on the sloppy side, but Simone Biles is all about it.
The Olympic champion gymnast posted a photo on X that shows her in the arms of husband, Packers safety Jonathan Owens, out in a snow-covered backyard in the Lambeau neighborhood. "Packer wonderland," she wrote.

Biles, who grew up and lives in Texas, is making quick progress when it comes to embracing winter weather in Wisconsin. On Halloween, when Green Bay received its first snowfall of the season, she tweeted, “I’m NOT built for cold weather.”
Those six words were all it took for Wisconsinites to jump in and offer her their best tips for staying toasty during Packers games when the temps dip — everything from electric socks from Fleet Farm to a good brandy Old-Fashioned.
She was appropriately bundled up in green and gold at Sunday's game. Bonus points for going with a Packers parka with a hood — always a sensible call. Cameras caught her giving Owens a hug and kiss, and then a sweet fist bump, down on the sidelines before the game.

When Biles told the "Today" show in October she would be at the "Sunday Night Football" game, coo-host Hoda Kotb was quick to plant the seed of a possible photo of Biles with pop star Taylor Swift, who is also in attendance to cheer for her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

“I would like to see you and Taylor. I think that would be really cute, a great photo opp. I think we might see that," Kotb told Biles.
