Spike Lee Gifts Barack A Special Pair Of Air Jordans (PHOTOS)

Posted January 20, 2012 by Jason Brooks for Global Grind Staff

Our President is officially ballin'.

Last night Spike Lee hosted a political fundraiser at his Upper East Side New York home for President Obama.

Among the guests were Nick Cannon, Mariah Carey, retired NY Knicks guard Allan Houston and of course, President Obama himself.

The dinner and fundraiser, at $35,800 a plate, was intended to help Barry rally for a second term in office. To commemorate the event, Spike gifted the President a special edition version of the Air Jordan Spiz'ike in the bordeaux colorway.

Although these sneakers will officially be available to the public in February, none of them will have the special edition wooden box laser engraved with the presidential seal.

Take a look through the gallery above to see the tweets that Spike sent out last night while showing off his gift to President Obama!
