The friendship between former first lady Michelle Obama and former President George W. Bush was on display again Thursday at the Obama Presidential Center's opening ceremony in Chicago.

Ahead of the ceremony, Bush gifted Obama a tin of Altoids in a callback to one of their viral moments at the funeral for Sen. John McCain in 2018. The former president was caught sneaking Obama what was later said to be a cough drop during the funeral.
