At his final White House Correspondents’ Dinner, President Barack Obama decided to give his speech a Black Mamba-inspired conclusion.
At the event known for humorous speeches and videos, the Commander in Chief finished off by mimicking Kobe Bryant’s retirement speech, kissing two fingers and saying, “Obama out” before dropping the microphone.
Earlier that month, Bryant provided the President’s inspiration for the sign-off at Staples Center.

Bryant tweeted his approval of the President’s reference later that night.
Haha! #obamaout #mambaout
