President George W. Bush will attend the 109th Army/Navy Game in Philadelphia where he can soak in some final memories as Commander in Chief.

The game will be played at Lincoln Financial Field on December 6.

The inter-service football game has become a patriotic tradition. The 2008 game marks the 81st time the game between the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, N.Y. and the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md.

Bush last attended the Army/Navy Game in 2004 where he did the pregame coin flip.  

The announcement was made during a White House press conference on Tuesday morning.
