In Florida this morning, President Obama was introduced by 'Scott the Pizza guy,' a former star on the campaign trail famous for bear-hugging the president when he visited his pizza shop.

"Every time I need a pick-me-up I try to see Scott," Obama said, after he bounded onto the stage and gave him a big hug. The pair spent time backslapping and exchanging private words prior to the president's speech.

The pizza shop owner was also an Obama guest at the debate last night.
