Dana White discussed logistical challenges for the upcoming UFC event at the White House, specifically highlighting a serious insect problem. After attending a dinner in the Rose Garden, White observed swarms of gnats and called his production chief to address the issue. He expressed his general dislike for outdoor events due to these complications. White is concerned that when the event lights are turned on, fighters will have to deal with insects flying into their mouths and eyes during their bouts. The UFC president mentioned considering fans to blow away the insects, but remains uncertain about the solution.
