PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MD — A bet between Police Chief Malik Aziz and Assistant Chief Vernon Hale against County Councilman Sydney Harrison and At Large Council Member Calvin Hawkins regarding the Commanders Thanksgiving Day football game came to fruition recently.

The bet was that Aziz would wear a Commanders jersey and sing the Commander's fight song at a full County Council meeting if the Commanders won. But if the Cowboys won the game, both Harrison and Hawkins would wash the police chief's car at National Harbor under the Big Screen, according to the police department.

The Cowboys won 45 to 10 over the Commanders and now the police chief's vehicle is sparkling clean thanks to the thorough hand wash it received.
