President Obama lauded courage and athleticism during Thursday's White House tribute to the Special Olympics, but the highlight of the evening was a simple hug from a man named Tim Harris.
Harris is a Special Olympian in basketball, hockey, volleyball, golf, and track and field — "so he has all four seasons covered," Obama said — and also owns a restaurant in Albuquerque called Tim's Place.
One of his specialties: Hugs for customers.
