Ever wondered what it’s really like to visit the White House as a World Series champion? For Los Angeles Dodgers’ star Enrique Hernandez, the experience wasn’t all glitter and glory. Instead of a seamless celebration, he revealed a chaotic behind-the-scenes story that the viewers might never get to see.
Let’s just say – the visit might not be as ‘presidential’ as it seems!
“They made us sit in a room for 3 hours. Then they told us to stop, then we lined up. We waited for a couple of hours and then they took us to the stage,” Hernandez pointed out. Probably, the parts of the event were a bit tedious and unorganized for him. But in true Enrique Hernandez fashion, he wasn’t going to sit quietly. His honesty about the event’s hiccups gave fans an actual perspective of the day.
However, despite the delays and the less seamless experience, Enrique Hernandez’s real reason for attending the event was clear. “No, I didn’t talk to President Trump, but I wasn’t really interested in talking to him either,” he shared. “I went to celebrate the championship last year, to be with my colleagues there, and to see the White House.”
For him, it wasn’t about engaging in political small talk, but rather enjoying the moment and marking the Dodgers’ victory with his teammates. It wasn’t about making headlines, it was about dodging the drama and enjoying the win.
After all, when you are a World Series Champion, who needs a shake when you already have a trophy in your hand?
In the end, Enrique Hernandez showed us that the best way to visit the President is with a bit of honesty and humor! For him, there was no need for small talk when he had already hit a home run in his life.
Hernandez being outspoken: Not the first time!
When it comes to making a statement, Enrique Hernandez knows how to stand out! As the Los Angeles Dodgers boarded a flight for Philadelphia for a series against the Phillies, the Dodgers’ social media shared some photos of the players, including one of Hernandez’s. Seems normal, doesn’t it? Although it ain’t!
At first glance, it seemed like a typical shot, but a closer look revealed something that would put even the most seasoned Photoshop artist to shame. Apparently, Hernandez’s brown hat was a sporting logo that read “B—HOLE WHISPERERS”. Yep, you read that right! The logo wasn’t just questionable, it was outrageous.
But here’s where it gets interesting: Instead of quietly moving on, Hernandez felt the need to weigh in on the situation. “I feel disrespected that my hat got photoshopped,” he commented. Possibly a subtle sarcasm, this only fueled the fire.
And of course, it’s not the first time that Enrique Hernandez has stirred the pot with his comments.
In the end, Hernandez proved yet again that he’s never one to back down, whether it’s on the field or in off-field banter!
