WATCH: Noah Lyles Pulls Out Blue-Eyes White Dragon Yu-Gi-Oh! Card For His 100M Intro At U.S. Olympic Trials
The shot-put star and Lyles made a bet that required Lyles to show a different Yu-Gi-Oh card before each race. In return, Ealey – a big Naruto fan – would wear the famous Rock Lee leg weights during the shot-put finals of the U.S. Olympic trials.
"I gotta live up to my part of the deal so she lives up to her part of the deal," Lyles said.
When asked about his other cards, Lyles revealed he's also got some Exodia pieces. They're considered some of the most iconic cards in the entire game.
So far, the Yu-Gi-Oh cards have been his good luck charm, even though one Exodia piece slipped out of his shirt while running. Still, he's been using his powers for good, not evil, through three rounds; Lyles recorded the fastest time of any finalist for the 100m dash, posting a blazing 9.80s in the semifinals.
