Chloe Kim is keeping her Olympic nervousness at bay with churros

Is there anything churros can’t do?

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Snowboarder Chloe Kim is a favorite to win gold for Team USA in the women’s halfpipe, but that doesn’t mean she’s immune to being nervous.

People have different ways of coping with their nerves. Maybe they do breathing exercises, or guided meditation. Perhaps there’s some music they like to listen to, or a TV show they watch to calm down and forget about the pressure. Kim has a unique way of dealing with it.

Whatever works for you, Chloe. I mean, I don’t need an excuse like Olympic nervousness to get down on a churro. I’m really impressed she managed to find churros in the Olympic Village. Those are a fairly specific food item you wouldn’t necessarily expect to find in Pyeongchang.

People loved the idea, though.

And one person decided to give a little bit TMI.
