Quick read
Dana White provided extensive details about the upcoming White House UFC event setup and planning. The arena is being constructed in Europe before being shipped to Philadelphia and then transported by truck to Washington DC, where it will be erected on the South Lawn with the White House as backdrop. White emphasized the entire event is privately funded by UFC with no taxpayer money involved, calling it a gift for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have already applied for tickets on UFCfreedom250.com. Free tickets will be available at the Ellipse, a large park across from the arena that can accommodate over 100,000 fans. The two-day fan festival will include press conference, weigh-ins, and a performance by Zac Brown Band.
