Everyone Is Freaking Out Over This Nerdy Pommel Horse Guy Named Steve
We have a new American hero, y'all.
His name is Steve Nedoroscik, and he had one job: pommel horse.
American icon. pic.twitter.com/C5ity3ELTA

If you aren't rotting in front of a TV watching Olympic coverage, then you probably don't know that the US men's gymnastics team won their first Olympic medal in 16 years.

Paul Juda slayed his vault.
Brody Malone did his thing on the parallel bars.
Frederick Richard demolished that high bar.
And Asher Hong did things I didn't know were humanly possible on the rings.
But one person came in clutch at the absolute last minute, and that was the guy with the glasses: Steve.
Stephen Nedoroscik only competed in ONE event and he was the literal last competitor. The entire competition was on his shoulders for Team USA.

As this person said, "Taking off your glasses to then perform a near perfect routine on the pommel horse is so freaking metal."

My timeline is full of people talking about him, so here are some of my favorite reactions:
I know nothing about gymnastics and here I am living and dying with whether this nerdy guy in glasses named Steve can pommel that horse. The Olympics are a curse.

To truly understand Stephen Nedoroscik's nerd credentials, you need to know that he is in Paris for the Olympics and posting to his insta story about solving a rubik's cube in under 10 seconds. pic.twitter.com/2vFygJBifW

If you're not going to support me like the members of the U.S. men's gymnastics team support each other, THEN I DON'T WANT IT.

I love this nerdy kid from Worcester who's at the Olympics just to do pommel horse and only pommel horse and he is literally Team USA's best chance at Olympic gold for just pommel horse. And today he's literally just hanging out until it's time for pommel horse. LOVE HIM. pic.twitter.com/GbQZUqb0SZ
