Trump says UFC match at WH next year.

This seems like it was a pretty cool event. I’m not a UFC fan, but it looked like a great experience.

There’s a watch party near Washington monument.

Interesting that NWS issued this

Maybe they shouldn’t have fired everyone.

Canada will never be part of your ridiculous idolization. We booed your flag, which we attribute to the Trump admin — at the World Cup, and we don’t give AF.

Until y’all get cancer. Then after your own country gives up on you, here you come!

They had to pay their own way, and troops who don't meet Hegseth's aryan appearance requirements were excluded.

Were they forced to go or they paid their own way to go? Both?

It is a voluntary event and 1,200 tickets for Active Duty were provided for free.

So the prior poster provided incorrect information? Were they mistaken about the whites only rule as well?

The band and the jets -- their attendance is not voluntary. That's what was referred to before.

The military personnel attending to watch -- they were not included if they didn't meet some Hegseth imposed weight and other requirements. Google it. It was news.

CNN said so!

Yep, and next year they will lay a tennis court and have the finals of the US Open there.

I mean, if you’re into that sort of “sweaty men all touching each other pretending to be butch men” sort of thing.

I prefer my entertainment slightly less…closeted

Brain-concussed people puking and slobbering on themselves and beating each other up for entertainment is cool?

The oiled-up guy in tighty whities seemed awfully confused about what a man is.

Were ticket holders standing outside on the rain?

What percentage of attendees were under some kind of roof/cover?

I turned the spectacle on at about 9PM thinking that it had already started and I later found out there was a delay due to weather....

That being said, the whole thing was ridiculous to have at the White House. To comment on the production value only, it appeared to be pretty well run, but the fighters walking out of the White House was completely over the top just like the whole event.

In total, I think I had it on for about 10 minutes and then went back to switching between the Stanley Cup and World Cup.

The motorcycle jumps in front of a banner of the White House were worse than this IMO.

but what were the tv ratings? isn't this always his most cherished metric?

DP. Depends on the cancer. Some forms of cancer have higher survival rates in Canada, especially among those of lower socioeconomic status.

This site is paywalled, but the article is so great I thought it was worth linking. It combines humor, deep thoughts about current American politics, and a UFC fan’s description of last night’s events, a weird mix that totally worked for me as a reader:
