Gracie Gold is coming back to the United States and she's sure to be met with a wealth of opportunities.
Among them: A California teenager named Dyer Pettijohn is wondering if the 18-year-old American figure skater will be his date to prom this spring. Pettijohn went through the trouble of making an intricate YouTube video to get his request to Gold, who finished fourth in the women's figure skating competition last week.

February 24, 2014 So is that an affirmative? Gold isn't saying just yet.
However, if Pettijohn is banking on the fact that she'll say yes because he thinks she didn't have a "normal" high school experience, we have some bad news. Gold, who is finishing her high school diploma through online courses with the University of Missouri, has been to her prom before.

I used to do compete in speech&debate, he is exactly like 95% of the guys in it and I just knew he would try to make a pun. As for Mr. Dyer Pettijohn...well he and Gracie seem like a good match...
