    George W. Bush blows up the Internet with adorable photo, delivers Instagram lesson to Jadeveon Clowney

    Former President George W. Bush is making serious Internet waves for posting an adorable "flashback Friday" photo to his Facebook and Instagram accounts on Halloween.

    The photo depicts Bush's father, former President George H. W. Bush, posing with W.'s costumed granddaughters Jenna and Barbara on Air Force Two.

    “One of my favorite memories of Dad’s 1988 Presidential campaign was when he invited our family to join him on a trip through the Midwest around Halloween. I still smile at the image of Barbara and Jenna walking down the aisles of Air Force Two trick-or-treating the national press corps,” the caption reads. The photo has received more than 155,000 Likes on Facebook and another 15,000 on Instagram in only a few days.

    Although he's now a 68-year-old grandfather, George W. Bush is no stranger to social media.

    The photo of W. Bush's father with his then-6-year-old daughters will be included in the younger Bush's hotly-anticipated book, 41: A Portrait of My Father, to be released Nov. 11.

    Although he's now a 68-year-old grandfather, George W. Bush is no stranger to social media and has grown quite an Internet presence since joining Instagram last August. As of late, he's made several posts which are seemingly intended to help promote his upcoming book, including a few photos of Bush with his father as well as shots of the book itself.

    Other photos posted to the former president's Instagram account include celebrity photos, such as one of Bush with Michael Jordan at the 2012 Ryder Cup and another with U2 frontman Bono. Rather unsurprisingly, you'll also find a lot of posts involving his family, with photos of his young granddaughter, wife, parents and numerous pets, including his cat, Bob, and former First Dog Barney.

    If you're a fan of Bush's paintings, you can find some photos of those, too. If only Houston Texans like Jadeveon Clowney and Ryan Mallett used social media as effectively as this presidential grandfather.

    George W. Bush posted this photo on Friday of his daughters Jenna and Barbara trick-or-treating aboard a flight with their grandpa George H.W. Bush in 1988.

    Houston hypes FIFA World Cup with new Guinness World Record

    Houstonians continue to show enthusiasm for the arrival of the FIFA World Cup this summer. On Saturday, April 11, local politicians, celebrities, and youth soccer players contributed to setting a new official Guinness World Record for the longest continuous line of soccer balls.

    Held at Hermann Park, the effort lined up more than 1,000 soccer balls to set the new record. DaMarcus Beasley, the only American to play in four World Cups, and Houston hip-hop legend Bun B participated in the event. An official Guinness World Records judge was on hand to confirm the feat.

    All of the more than 1,000 soccer balls used in the record-breaking event were donated to Grow the Game, a collaboration between the FIFA World Cup 2026 Houston Host Committee and the Harris County-Houston Sports Authority Foundation. The program aims to expand access to soccer for underserved youth across Houston through free and low-cost programming, including clinics, tournaments, and more.

    “Today’s event is about more than breaking a world record, it’s about celebrating Houston and investing in its future,” Airbnb executive Laura Spanjian said in a statement. “As the world prepares to come to Houston for the FIFA World Cup 2026, we’re proud to support programs that ensure local communities, especially young people, can be part of that moment in a meaningful and lasting way.”

    As Spanjian notes, Airbnb has committed more than $1 million to helping Houston get ready for the FIFA World Cup, which will feature seven matches between June 14 and July 4. These efforts include money for improvements along the Green Corridor, a 14-mile long path connecting multiple major landmarks in Houston through safe, walkable paths that include shade trees and other improvements.

    Airbnb expects that Houston will welcome more than 31,000 visitors during the World Cup, generating an estimated $372 million economic impact, according to Deloitte.
