Right now in the White House daily press briefing, press secretary Robert Gibbs is making good on a bet, and donning hockey jersey.

He initially came out in a personalized Canada jersey– #39 for team USA goalie Ryan Miller. Still in the Canada jersey, Gibbs said that he’s instructed the Canadian Ambassador to deliver a case Molson Canadian and a case of Yueling, America’s oldest beer, to the prime minister’s office.

The bet was made with his counterpart in the prime minister’s office, Dimitri Soudas, over the Olympic hockey games.
