A Moment of Awkwardness at the White House

The Ohio State Buckeyes made a trip to the White House on April 14. They were there to celebrate their big win in the national championship game. The Buckeyes had won four straight games, including the title game against Notre Dame. This was all part of the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff. The team brought their shiny new trophy to show off on the South Lawn. But things took a funny turn when Vice President JD Vance dropped the trophy while trying to lift it. He is an Ohio State grad, so it was a bit embarrassing for him. He then held up the top half of the trophy for photos. This all happened in Washington D. C. with some big names around, including President Donald Trump, Secretary of Defense Marco Rubio, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, and Lieutenant Governor Jim Tressel. All three of them spoke from the podium. The trophy is designed to come apart, so it wasn't a big deal. Vance later said he "broke" it so no one could take it. This is not like the Stanley Cup, which gets passed around. The Buckeyes had a lot to celebrate. They had just won a major title in a new format.
