Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which U.S. President weighed 350 lbs. on his inauguration day?"
President William Howard Taft holds the unique distinction of being the heaviest U.S. president, weighing in at 354 pounds at the time of his inauguration. While “Big Bill” is the only person to have served as both President and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, many people only remember the tale of him allegedly getting stuck in the White House bathtub. Yet, Taft’s legacy extends far beyond that. He was the first U.S. president to throw the ceremonial first pitch on baseball’s opening day and the first president whose funeral was broadcast on radio.
