UFC President Dana White revealed that Ultimate Fighting enthusiasts may be able to win free tickets to attend the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House in June.<\/p>\n

Speaking on \u201cMy View with Lara Trump\u201d over the weekend, White explained that he and President Donald Trump will be giving away tens of thousands of tickets to fans who can enjoy the first-ever live fight to be held at the White House as the nation celebrates its 250th birthday.<\/p>\n

White noted that the president wants the event, which will take place on his birthday on June 14, to be \u201cmostly for the military,\u201d with a temporary arena to be built that will hold 4,300 people.<\/p>\n\n

Fans will be able to see the fight from the Ellipse, the public park south of the White House, White explained, telling host Lara Trump that there will be giant screens, stages, and music set up there.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are a fan of the UFC and especially if you have never been to Washington, D.C., we\u2019re going to give away about 85,000 tickets,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to be doing all kinds of things, you know, in D.C. for fans, and it\u2019s really a cool city\u2026 If you\u2019re a UFC fan, this is absolutely positively the time to come to D.C.,\u201d White revealed, noting that fans should register for the free tickets.<\/p>\n

Noting that this will be the first outdoor event for the UFC, White admitted he is not a fan, as it can be \u201cway too unpredictable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it rains, we\u2019re going. If it snows, we\u2019re going. The only thing that will stop us is lightning. But we\u2019re working with the military,\u201d he said. \u201cThe military knows the weather 10 days out. They will notify us every two hours, 10 days out. In seven days, they will tell us every hour.\u201d<\/p>\n

White explained that the event could be moved earlier or later in the day, depending on the final weather.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo these are all things that we\u2019ll be playing with the week of the event on top of all the other things that we will have going on, which we never had to deal with,\u201d he said. \u201cThe only time I\u2019d ever agreed to do an outdoor event was in Abu Dhabi\u2026 I could be the weatherman in Abu Dhabi, and I would be right every time.\u201d<\/p>\n
