As the President of the United States, one of Barack Obama's favorite responsibilities is hosting sports champions to the White House. Each team brings the President a jersey, and after eight years, you have to believe that President Obama has quite the extensive jersey collection.
The one jersey he has more of than any other is an Alabama football jersey. That's because the Crimson Tide have won four national titles since Obama became President in 2008, and on Wednesday, the Tide rolled into the White House one more time. You can watch the entire ceremony in this video (skip ahead to the 22:52 mark, or just stare at a blue screen for 23 minutes, it's your life).
Of course, if you don't want to watch the entire thing, you could just read this pun the President told during it.
"This is the fourth time I have hosted Alabama here at the White House...in fact you could call me O-‘Bama." —@POTUS #RollTide

Listen, by and large, most puns are incredibly lame, and this one was no different. In the President's defense, again, this was Alabama's fourth visit. He's obviously running low on material.
