Flavor Flav Saves The Day By Paying Olympian Veronica Fraley’s Rent
Recently, Flavor Flav decided to lend a helping hand to discus thrower Veronica Fraley, who had more than just her Olympic debut to worry about this week. The 24-year-old Athlete took to Twitter Thursday night to share that she was struggling to pay her rent, despite competing in the most prestigious sporting event in the world the very next day.
“I compete in the Olympic Games TOMORROW and can’t even pay my rent,” the Vanderbilt University student wrote. “My school only sent about 75% of my rent while they pay football players (who haven’t won anything) enough to buy new cars and houses.” Luckily, Flavor Flav caught wind of Fraley’s predicament right away and quickly swooped in to save the day. He replied to her post, offering to pay her rent so she could focus solely on giving her all at the Olympics.

Clearly, this was a tremendous help to Fraley, who promptly thanked the duo. “THANK YOU & @FlavorFlav SO MUCH,” she said. “This makes every difference in the WORLD & I hope to represent team USA well this week.”
