Tony Hawk Skateboards at the White House

June 22nd, 2009 by Jamie Tierney

Tony Hawk made history on Friday by becoming the first ever person to skateboard inside the White House. Tony was invited to Washington D.C. to participate in a Father’s Day celebration with President Obama and took the opportunity to skate down the hallowed White House halls. “This really happened,” said Tony. “Thank you for the invite, President Obama. It was an honor.”
