Politicians (*not rockers or rappers*) in unis and logo-related stuff

[keynote]

Mitt Romney's instantly iconic custom Jazz jersey inspired this thread (as did this infamous thread from a few years back).

 

 

 

As a general rule, the most dignified fashion choice for most politicians is the baseball bullpen jacket. 

 

 

 

But occasionally, a politician gives us a gift. 

 

Feel free to post pics of politicians wearing sports gear.  Holding up a commemorative jersey (without wearing it) isn't enough.  I'd pass on jerseys from non-professional leagues (although Christie's NYPD jersey is still a classic).  First pitches will do it.  Extra points for jerseys tucked into jeans, worn under blazers, or over Van Heusen dress shirts with rolled-up sleeves.  

 

(and yeah, feel free to throw in pics of Bill Bradley, Jack Kemp, Jim Bunning, and this glorious silver fox, Rep. Tom McMillen (D-MD))

Why does this look like a cameo from a late-90s sitcom?

It feels more like early-80s to me -- like a screenshot from "Benson."

Angus King, then governor of Maine, holding up a cutout of Minnesota's governor at the time Jesse Ventura. This had something to do with an NCAA hockey game bet I think.

That's my Mainer way of segueing into a bunch of Jesse Ventura pictures...

And, a throwback to the 1990s:

Canadian PM Jean Chretien and Bill Clinton swap 'capitol' jerseys of the Washington Capitals and the Ottawa Senators.
