The final of the men’s steeplechase is slated to start at 9:55 a.m.
The Buffalo Wild Wings also opened early on Monday so fans of Jager could watch him run in the prelims at the Olympics.
This is Jager’s second trip to the Olympics after finishing in sixth place in the summer Olympics in London in 2012. Buffalo Wild Wings also hosted a watch party during that race.

Jager is hoping to make it to the medal stand in Rio. If he does, it will be the first time since 1984 the U.S. has won a steeplechase medal for the men’s steeplechase, according to the Aurora Beacon-News.
