Robert Gibbs loses his shirt for Team USA

By Christina Wilkie - 02/26/10 02:18 PM ET

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs will wear a Team Canada hockey jersey the next time he meets with reporters. 

The reason for the stylish turn is a lost bet with Gibbs's Canadian counterpart, Demitri Soudas, the spokesman for Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper

The two spokesmen bet that if Team USA won, Soudas would brief reporters in a USA jersey on March 3. If Team Canada won, Gibbs would have to sport a Canadian jersey at his next off-camera meeting with reporters. 

The Canadian women beat Team USA 2-0 on Thursday in Vancouver to take the gold medal.
