Abraham Lincoln was once the wrestling champion for his county

While it is safe to say that Abraham Lincoln chose correctly when becoming the President of the United States and playing a massive role in making the country more equal for everyone, regardless of skin color or religion, he also had quite the future ahead of himself as a wrestler. Lincoln was the top wrestler in his county, New Salem, Illinois. He also had a famous wrestling bout with Jack Armstrong, another wrestling champion. Lincoln won.
