Olympic track and field champion Gabby Thomas shared a PSA explaining that she fears she’s being stalked by a group of middle-aged men, who allegedly followed her to and from multiple cities ???
Normally I can sniff out a hoax right away. I must admit that didn't happen this time. I'd say I think there is a decent chance this is true but also at least a 20% chance this is a jessie smollett situation.
What makes me question it just a little suspicious?
1) If this did happen to you, would your very 1st thought be, "Let's go to Tik Tok and post about it?" I mean she's a Harvard grad and says she doesn't know whom to contact? It's not that hard.
How about starting with 1) Airport security/local police 2) The airlines 3) Your agent - let him deal with it.
2) Is she really famous enough that these guys could be making enough money by getting her to autograph stuff? But let's say that's true. Why not just approach her at practice?

Agree that something is off here. These guys buy plane tickets (required to get through security) so that they can follow her around in one of the busiest, most crowded, most security-heavy settings in U.S. life? And they do this for the purpose of...????

She's kinda hot. i casually follow track, if i saw her in the airport i would likely look twice. I have friends that watched the track documentary and now "know" her better than me and, if they had time, would probably follow her around, no harm intended. Not saying it's right, just very likely. Price of fame . Sorry.

If you have friends that "would probably follow her around" you need some new friends.
She has been running from the testing agencies for years.
So why hasn't she had any whereabouts violations (she was cleared of the only one alleged)? Yet more tiresome brain-dead cynic bullsheet.
"brain-dead cynic bullsheet" - nice comment from a nice person.
To answer your question: smart dopers reduce their dosages after 2 missed tests, so they don't need to hide, until the 1st missed test expires after 12 months. Or they keep going, having good friends available to provide an alibi if needed.
Regarding "cleared": she missed 3 tests within 12 months, and 1 thereof was excused based on a) her friends' testimony and b) her phone record showing she was in the vicinity.

I fly a lot, like weekly. at many airports you don't actually need a boarding pass to get through security. I just put my drivers license in the ID machine, get cleared, and move through security. never once do I show a boarding pass.
