President Donald Trump handled the coin toss at Saturday's 120th Army-Navy game, receiving mostly cheers from the Lincoln Financial Field crowd.
Navy won the toss and deferred until the second half.
The president also visited both locker rooms prior to kickoff, signing an executive order allowing athletes at the nation’s military academies to play professional sports after they graduate, and delay their active-duty service.
According to the Associated Press, allowing athletes to delay service has been a hotly debated issue. The Obama administration previously put a policy in place allowing some athletes to go to the pros and defer their military service.
