Joey Votto wanted a fan's 'Votto for President' shirt so much he traded his own jersey for it
After some inspection, Votto decided that, yes, he would like to own a T-shirt that says he should be elected president. And, being Joey Votto, he had plenty to offer the fan in return -- like, for example, the jersey off of his back:

Of course, Votto hails from Canada, a country that has a prime minister rather than a president. Still, that's just a technicality:
This is Kyle. Joey liked his "Votto for President" shirt so much that he brokered a trade.

Only one problem: Joey Votto can't run for president. So he signed it, "More like Prime Minister!"

As for how the fan made out in the deal? His name is Kyle, and it doesn't seem like he regrets it:
