President Trump will host UFC Freedom 250 on the White House South Lawn on June 14, which the president calls the "hottest ticket that I've ever seen." The event will take place on Trump's birthday and Flag Day, leading up to America's 250th anniversary on July Fourth.
The fight is generating extraordinary demand from donors, lobbyists, members of Congress, and well-connected fans, all clamoring for access to one of the most exclusive events in Washington. Republicans began flooding the White House with ticket requests almost immediately after the announcement last summer.
