Barack Obama smugshots

ObamaFrank Praverman

He loves a morning workout at the gym, he swings a mean golf club and he's been known to throw a few hoops. Despite his penchant for a crafty fag, Barack Obama is obviously the sporty type.

As with any celebrity, the President-elect is more than happy to pose for the cameras and this is where you come in ... we want your pictures of when you met Obama.

We're not talking about getting a snap of the top of his head from 300 yards away while he was pounding the campaign trail. No, this is the place to display your arm-round-the-shoulder, cheestastic grin when you bumped into the great man as he was buying his sneakers at the local Walmart.

There must be a few of them around: perhaps you were captured with him on the basketball court while he was a kid in Honolulu? Or maybe he shook your hand for picking up his sand wedge when he left it in a bunker?

If you still haven't got the gist of what we're after, take a look at these football smugshots and this gallery of the sporting world's great and the good.

And if you haven't met him on the football field, don't worry: send in the pic of you and Obama at the bus station and we'll publish that too.

Send your smugshots to sport@timesonline.co.uk.
