My recollection is vague on this, but didn't John Elway skip out on a WH visit back in the day when the Broncos were winning Super Bowls? That was during Clinton's second term.
John Elway's decision to skip the Broncos' trip to the White House continues to be the subject of much controversy in Denver. The team reported he skipped it because of a knee exam. Elway, who apparently was a no-show because he's not a fan of President Clinton, did have the exam, but it turns out he was "recuperating" on the golf course on the day his teammates were at the White House. Elway has since left for a vacation in Europe and was not available for comment, but coach Mike Shanahan said: "John's been to the White House before. It's not like his first time."
