Michelle Obama and Jill Biden were booed at NASCARs season finale at
the Homestead-Miami Speedway on Sunday.
The appearance was part
of an initiative to honor military troops and families. The first
lady and vice presidents wife also served as grand marshals for the
big race.
At the beginning of the race, an announcer introduced
the two women, who were met with a loud combination of both cheers
and boos.
This is hardly the first time the first and second lady
have been booed at a sporting event. Their appearance at World
Series games in both 2009 and 2011 were met with a less-than-warm
welcome.
