On this Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, some of you might have taken the time to watch President Obama’s inauguration. I certainly did and was not expecting anything noteworthy to occur, but thanks to social media, HDTV and an iPhone camera, we’re able to spot some funny things that otherwise might be missed. Well, during the reading of a poem, I was flipping back and forth among the channels carrying the event and I happened to spot Oregon State basketball coach Craig Robinson (and brother-in-law of the President) sitting behind the just-sworn-in Mr. Obama and noticed the coach photobombing the President.
I thought it was hilarious so thanks to my DirecTV DVR, I was able to rewind the event to the precise moment when Robinson gave his funny expression, took the shot off my TV with my iPhone and posted it to Twitter.
You can see it for yourself right here.

It quickly was retweeted to the point where it ran all over the country. It’s also been picked up by various sites including Mashable, SportsGrid, College Basketball Talk and CBSSports.com.
Very funny pic to bring some levity to the proceedings.
