President Donald Trump flipped the coin to start the Army vs. Navy football game on Saturday, as he personally attended the game in Philadelphia.
“It is obviously with great pride and great honor to welcome our commander in chief the president of the United States, President Donald J. Trump,” the referee said as the crowd cheered wildly.
The president wore a brand new red Keep America Great campaign hat onto the field and tossed the coin.
Army called heads but the coin landed on tails, giving Navy their field position preference.
