No sitting U.S. president has ever attended a Super Bowl. President Obama might have been the first if his hometown Chicago Bears had defeated the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship Game on January 23, 2011. Obama had promised to attend Super Bowl XLV at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas if the Bears won.

The first President to throw out a first pitch in Major League Baseball was William Howard Taft in 1910. So none of the earlier Presidents did. Since then, every US President has tossed a pitch in either the All Star Game, the World Series, or the first game of the baseball season.
Lyndon Johnson
William Howard Taft was the first to open the major league baseball season by throwing out the first pitch on April 14, 1910. McKinley threw out the first pitch in a minor league game as governor of Ohio before he was President.
