Former U.S. President Barack Obama is apparently a Darmstadt fan and the struggling Bundesliga side has responded by inviting him to one of its home games. In a video attached to the tweet, Darmstadt's American forward Terrence Boyd presents a jersey with Obama's name on it and says it's a ''huge honor'' for the club to be followed by the former U.S. president. Boyd is the likely reason Obama followed the club on Twitter.
