On January 20, the United States Presidential Inauguration took place, and it was attended by many people, including Senator Bernie Sanders. He was dressed in a brown coat and had also worn mittens. It wasn’t long before this look went viral and found its way into many social media posts. Some of these involved various tennis players, and here are some of the most hilarious ones.

The above post is from the 2012 Australian Open final which featured Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. It was a marathon match lasting nearly 6 hours and both players can be seen slumped in the chair with exhaustion waiting for the prize distribution. Netizens saw an opportunity and laughably places Bernie Sanders’ image cleverly between them.
The next hilarious post featured Japanese tennis star Naomi Osaka. After her win at the 2020 US Open, she was lying down on the court. A fan placed Senator Sanders’ image in such a way that it looked as if he was watching her.
