What would you do if you walked off with one of the more surprising gold medal wins of the Winter Olympics?

For Czech skier/snowboarder Ester Ledecka, the answer was to hit up a KFC near the Olympic snowboard course.

Here’s how Ester Ledecka celebrated the biggest upset at the #Olympics … by eating some @kfc with gold medal in tow. https://t.co/Ws2dqrXPnA pic.twitter.com/ztpjm3kU9g

Ledecka was mostly keeping to herself, offering up one comment about her choice of meal to Eddie Pells and Will Graves of the Associated Press: “Don’t tell my coaches.”

Ledecka won a gold medal in an event she wasn’t supposed to have a shot in and got a shoutout from a similarly-named fellow Olympian. We’ll go ahead and say she’s entitled to have some fast food just this once.
