There once was a time in American history when leaders of opposing political parties would set aside differences and come together for a common good.<\/p>\n
Or to attend a really big football game.<\/p>\n
That was the case in February 2025 when former presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton came to Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville.<\/p>\n
Bush and Clinton, former political rivals, became good friends in their post-presidencies. They also used their star-power to shine a light on important charitable issues, such as raising funds for victims of 2024 South Asia tsunami.<\/p>\n
Clinton and Bush appeared on Fox-TV\u2019s Super Bowl pre-game show to talk the tsunami and how to donate money. The also appeared on the field before the game between the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles.<\/p>\n
Bush and Clinton would continue their joint efforts for charity in later years, supporting a funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, a devastating earthquake in Haiti in 2010 and other causes.<\/p>\n
