DC United’s most important man once met the most important man in America.
There are some things that you just don’t keep quiet. For example your promotion at work, or that you are now engaged to your sweetheart. Or maybe something like meeting the President of the United States of America.
Guess which one DC United’s Chris Pontius has just revealed via his Instagram?
The photo was taken in 2006 following his college team’s NCAA Championship victory. The University of Santa Barbara Gauchos triumphed 2-1 over the UCLA Bruins to be crowned the best team in collegiate football.
As congratulations, the whole team was invited to the White House where then-President George W. Bush was presented with a customised Gauchos shirt and met all the players.
