Bush, along with his wife Barbara, will partake in the coin toss Sunday at Super Bowl 51 at NRG Stadium in Houston, where the New England Patriots will take on the Atlanta Falcons.

He teased his involvement with the coin toss earlier this week, tweeting, “Getting fired up for Sunday and #Superbowl,” along with GIF of a spinning Super Bowl coin on a desk with a photo of himself and the former first lady.
