On Monday, Aug. 29 BMX Olympian Connor Fields was spotted celebrating his gold medal win at JEWEL Nightclub inside ARIA Resort & Casino.

Back home from the 2016 Olympic games in Rio De Janeiro, the 23 year-old Las Vegas native started his night at Herringbone restaurant inside ARIA where his group, which included his girlfriend Laura Gruninger, enjoyed a variety of the destination’s signature dishes and cocktails.

After dinner, Fields made his way to Vegas’ newest nightspot around 11:30 p.m. and was seated at a VIP table near the dance floor while Hakkasan Group resident DJ 3lau was laying down chart topping hits for the packed club.

Shortly after his arrival, Fields was invited into the DJ booth where he was presented with a JEWEL gold medal as the entire room cheered his name and cocktail waitresses spelled out “USA” in large letters behind him.

Adding to the celebratory evening, the BMX athlete was surprised by a parade of cocktail waitresses who greeted him with large letters spelling out his name and presented him with a custom gold medal cake. Filled with excitement, the Olympian posed for photos with the cake before happily biting into it.

The athlete was seen in high spirits throughout the night as he danced, sipped on cocktails and mingled with his friends before leaving around 2:30 a.m.
