Venturing out of the White House for the first time since his headline-grabbing sports accident Friday, President Barack Obama was in the stands at Howard University Saturday for the men’s basketball game against Oregon State University, where his brother-in-law Craig Robinson is the head coach.
Arriving just minutes before the tipoff, the president sat directly behind the Oregon State bench in Howard’s mostly empty Burr Stadium, accompanied by first lady Michelle Obama, mother-in-law Marian Robinson and daughters Sasha and Malia.
