Nick Goepper is such a Cincinnati Bengals fanatic, he wore a team jersey during a freeski slopestyle competition in January.

So imagine his anguish when he discovered the Winter Olympics qualifying round for slopestyle will conflict with his beloved teams Super Bowl game against the Los Angeles Rams on Feb. 13 at the Rams home stadium.

Goepper, who won bronze at the 2014 Games and silver in 2018, told USA Today hes waging an extremely terrible internal battle.

Goepper grew up about 25 miles from the Bengals stadium and has never seen the team in the big game. He was born in 1994 and Cincinnati last played in the Super Bowl in 1989.
