RAPID CITY, S.D. — Some of the biggest names in American political history visited the Black Hills over the long President’s Day weekend, even stopping at their likenesses at Mount Rushmore.
The Washington Nationals’ presidential mascots, famous for their footraces during the 7th-inning stretch, traveled to western South Dakota as guests of The Black Hills, Badlands & Lakes Association. Video footage from their tour, which also included stops at Custer State Park, Wall Drug Store and Deadwood, will be played during future home games.
