The sweater was a gift from bassist Rex Brown
The mayor of Albuquerque, New Mexico, in the United States, wore a Black Panther at a ceremony where he signed a new law for the city.
Tim Keller, a big heavy metal fan, wore the sweater while signing the new paternity leave law last Thursday, the 27th. During a recent interview with the New York Times , Keller said that the city has always been a big fan of the genre: "What can I say, it's something I've liked for a long time."
In a tweet celebrating the law, Keller thanked Pantera bassist Rex Brown for the sweater, while the musician shared the news about the ceremony on his social media.
Thank you advocates @lissaknudsen and advocates @ABQCityCouncil and @PatDavisNM for the legislation for our families. And little shout out to @REJASFROMTEJAS for the sweater 🙂 #metalmayor @BLABBERMOUTHNET @metalinjection @Loudwire https://t.co/B8nmdkLPZ5
