Jason Sudeikis proudly wore a sweater showing his horse in the race for the upcoming election while sitting courtside at the Liberty-Aces game.
The Ted Lasso star and Barclays Center regular enjoyed Game 1 of the semifinal series between last year’s WNBA title contenders on Sunday night.
With many eyes on the WNBA playoffs, Sudeikis showed she supports Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as they campaign for November’s presidential and vice-presidential elections.
While enjoying women’s basketball in downtown Brooklyn, Sudeikis wore a sweater that said “Harris & Walz & Joy & Liberty.” The base of the sweater was black with the text printed in Liberty’s signature seafoam green.
The actor paired his sweater with black pants and ivory Kevin Durant sneakers with pink laces.
