President Barack Obama will be watching Wednesday's Bulls game at the White House
President Barack Obama isn't afraid to show a little hometown pride, especially when it comes to sports.
On Wednesday night, Obama will continue that tradition while watching the Bulls-Bobcats game at a viewing party at the White House.
And this is just the latest event Obama is dedicating to his Chicago teams.
At 2 p.m. Friday at the White House, Obama will honor the Blackhawks for their 2009-2010 Stanley Cup victory. The president invited the team to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony and a children's street hockey clinic on the South Lawn.
Obama's allegiances seem clear. Remember the 2009 MLB All-Star game? Obama threw out the first pitch wearing a black White Sox training jacket. The toss cleared the plate, with a little help from St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols.
Earlier this year, Obama predicted a win for the Bears in their post-season game against the Green Bay Packers.
His team didn't win -- but it's the thought that counts, right?
The Bulls tip off against the Charlotte Bobcats at 6 p.m. central time.
