Yeah, I don't know a ton about inaugurations, so I'm just gonna wing it, if that's okay:
Thomas Jefferson was the first President to be sworn in wearing a hat.
James Polk was sworn in on a copy of "Our Bodies, Ourselves."
Herbert Hoover won both a Strongest Man contest and a radio call-in competition the day before his inauguration.
The word "inauguration" means "hobo marriage" in Swahili.
Bill Clinton was inaugurated not on the Capitol steps but at a Caribou Coffee in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
I'm gonna quit right there, because I feel foolish making this stuff up. I don't like pretending to know about something that I really don't. Like that time some dean for some university rode in my town car and started talking about the deficit. I started running my mouth and could tell in the rear view mirror that he wasn't buying it. That was an uncomfortable ride.
