Dana White reveals arena design for White House UFC event

Dana White showed how the arena will look for the upcoming UFC event at the White House. The stage is being built in Europe, will be shipped to Philadelphia, then transported by truck to Washington DC where it will be erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White emphasized that UFC is funding everything themselves with no taxpayer money being spent, calling it a gift from UFC for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets at UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available at the Ellipse park across from the arena. More than 100,000 fans are expected to attend events throughout fight weekend, which will include a two-day fan festival with press conference, weigh-ins, live performance by Zac Brown Band, celebrity guests, and big screen fight viewing.
