Since the Gridiron Club annual dinner was founded in the 1800s, most presidents have made a point to attend at least once during their administrations.

The white tie dinner is known for its comedic speeches by the president and lawmakers from both parties. While the event has never been filmed, reporters are invited to attend and often cover the speeches given.
