The seven gymnasts who electrified the just-completed Summer Olympics won't be going to Busch Gardens after all.
About 200 U.S. Olympians are to appear today through Friday at the Williamsburg theme park. But not the ``Magnificent Seven,'' who won America's first gold medal in the women's team competition. Instead, the gymnasts finalized plans on Monday for a 31-city national tour that lasts from September through November.
The lineup of other Olympic athletes appearing at Busch Gardens was being fine-tuned Tuesday night.
