(42,406 posts)The coin toss happens in the first couple minutes, after that he'll probably split. They don't have a coin toss after the halftime, just for the beginning of the game.

(1,533 posts)Obviously they don't have a coin toss at halftime, where did you get the ridiculous notion that I was referring to that? Tradition is that the President sits on one side the first half and the other the second half, so as to not show favoritism towards one branch or the other.
It's often wise should do a little reading before one attempts to make fun of someone else, to avoid appearing like an ignorant fool.

(1,533 posts)Like previous commanders in chief, Trump switched sides at halftime in a show of impartiality. During the second half, he sat between Vice Adm. Ted Carter Jr. and Richard V. Spencer, secretary of the Navy.
He sat on the Army side first between Mark Esper, the secretary of the Army, and Army Gen. Mark Milley, the current chief of the Army and Trump's nominee to succeed Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Almost as bad as Trump flipping the coin, he tossed in the air with no thumb action at all, liked he had never handled a coin in his life. I seriously doubt there was any rotation until possibly after hitting the ground. The ref managed it well, not giving the coin to dumbshit until after Navy made their call.

I'm sure he can get some of his idolaters to do this:

cwydro
(51,308 posts)I did wonder if it was because he was inside all the time.
No way he stood outside through the entire game. I doubt he even watched it.
