I remember being at this meet. I asked my mom to get me tickets for my birthday. We drove the 2 hours down to Philly together. My mom, having watched me grow up doing gymnastics, has a fairly decent working knowledge of the sport. She was familiar with Shawn and Nastia, but I had to fill her in on my predictions everywhere else, because she mixed the other girls up.
I remember sitting down with my program saying that I didn’t think Chellsie’s comeback would be successful. I walked out completely blown away.
