It was Election Day here in the U.S. earlier this week. To commemorate this event, we thought we’d try something a bit different. Below are six cropped Fan Teaser images of athletes who served as elected leaders in their nation’s federal government. Are you able to name them and the role they served? (Hint: Though probably popular enough to run for (and win!) the Presidency, Babe Ruth was not an elected official. You should focus on who’s presenting Ruth with the certificate.)
Just to review, The Fan Teaser was the creation of former Ann Arbor News Sports Editor Geoff Larcom. Longtime friend and fellow Ann Arbor News alum, Pat Schutte, took it to heights previously unknown. We aim to keep it alive here at The Sports Fan Project. The cropped photo and the accompanying clue give you an idea as to who or what the image is of. We invite you to use the Comment option to take a crack at solving the Teaser and, if you’re so inclined, participate in some good-spirited banter with your fellow sports fans. The Fan Teaser will appear each Friday morning with the reveal coming to you Sunday.
