Presumably, One Of The Most Athletic Individuals To Hold The Highest Office
Saturday Night Live made fun of Ford’s clumsiness throughout his administration, although he was really one of the most athletic presidents in American history. For the University of Michigan football team, Ford was a center and a linebacker in his adolescence. During his guidance, the squad won two national titles. When Ford graduated from high school, he was approached by the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers, but he turned them down.
It was his decision to join the Navy that changed his life. The 38th president was an avid swimmer, skier, golfer, and tennis player while he was in the Oval Office.
In college football, the future president sat on the bench but subsequently discovered his calling.
