El SEGUNDO, Calif. – Jim Harbaugh used one of his favorite phases when he was asked about his recent trip to the White House.
“Who gets invited to the White House with eight other family members and doesn’t go? Nobody,” Harbaugh said.
Harbaugh and his family were invited to the White House last week.
“There’s a lot of gratitude there to be invited to the White House to meet the President with my family, my mom and dad. President Trump was great to my mom and dad. It meant so much. My brother John, his daughter, my two daughters, my sister and niece,” Harbaugh said. “There were nine of us.”
Harbaugh said he and President Trump discussed football in the White House. The Los Angeles Chargers head coach noted that President Trump is the seventh U.S. President he’s met.
Harbaugh told reporters he’s met Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Trump. He also revealed he’s met Pope Francis.
“Seven Presidents, Pope Francis, four first ladies and caught 22 foul balls,” Harbaugh said smiling. “I’m really proud of that. I don’t think I’ll get to 22 presidents, but hopefully, God willing…maybe 15, maybe, hopefully 15 or 16.”
Harbaugh and the Chargers kicked off their first day of training camp with rookies and veterans on Thursday. They are the first team in the NFL to start training camp this year. Los Angeles and the Detroit Lions get the preseason underway in the Hall of Fame Game on July 31.
