President Trump was on hand to do the coin toss at the Army-Navy football game on Saturday—and he totally fumbled it.

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump attended the 126th annual Army-Navy game at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland, home field of the NFL’s Ravens.

Before the match began, the 79-year-old POTUS was escorted to midfield to perform the coin toss, a long-running tradition for sitting U.S. presidents.


It didn't go well.

A referee asked, “Mr. President, would you do the honor?” before handing Trump a coin to determined which team would kick off. Trump placed the coin on his gloved palm and gently threw it into the air, where it seemed to go straight up and back down without ever flipping.

The coin landed on tails in favor of the Army Black Knights, but that's not what caught the attention of millions of viewers on social media. Instead, people honed in on Trump's odd coin-tossing form.

In the words of Total Pro Sports:

"...it looks like he’s never tossed a coin before."
