Obama fits in pre-prom workout

President Obama made a trip to Ft. McNair Saturday afternoon for a game of pickup basketball before his appearance at tonight’s White House Correspondents’ Association dinner.

Obama, personal aide Reggie Love (a former Duke basketball player), and five other men made their way to the southwest Washington Army base for a game of pickup basketball, according to a pool report.

The Washington weather is hovering in the low 80s with 50 percent humidity, but the president opted to play indoors.

Obama will attend the dinner tonight, where his comedic speech will be one of the evening’s main attractions.
