Two Winners
After stunning everyone in the audience during the competition, the next event was the awarding ceremony. There were two silver cups for one male gymnast and one female gymnast. No one was shocked that Nadia Comăneci won and the other cup was given to the American athlete Bart Conner. This served as their first meeting and it ended up becoming a life-changing moment for both talented gymnasts!

Photographers wanted to capture the image of the champions on film and they huddled together to snap photos as they showed off their medals. Someone yelled, “Kiss for the cameras, please!” The 18-year-old Bart Conner obliged the request by kissing Nadia on the cheek. The moment made for an adorable image and the photograph was definitely well-received. We daresay that the moment further catapulted Nadia into fame!
