US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has become Port Adelaide's newest supporter after being presented with a Power guernsey by premier Jay Weatherill.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been presented with a new Port Adelaide guernsey by South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill.
Clinton visited Adelaide this morning to tour the facilities at Techport in the club’s spiritual heartland.
Show Your True Passion. Join the Club in 2013.
The premier, himself a lifelong Port Adelaide supporter and state member for the electorate where Port Adelaide’s Alberton headquarters is based, is hosting Clinton on the tour of South Australia’s defence facilities.
The guernsey - produced by the club’s new apparel partner ISC - was presented to Clinton in government house today.
It is the same guernsey that will be pulled on by the Power players during the 2013 season.
The premier later tweeted that the gift “evens up” the Adelaide jumper given to Bush-era state secretary Condoleeza Rice by former foreign minister Alexander Downer.
“No she got lovely official gift this evens up downer giving crows guernsey to condy rice,” said the tweet.
