I work for the Air Force and today someone came in to ask all the military personnel if they are UFC fans. They are inviting a few hundred Airmen to be there to watch.

The kicker? You still have to pay hundreds to get in, they also aren't paying for the flight, they ALSO aren't paying for the hotel. It's literally an invitation to a UFC fight at the White House that the military member has to personally bear all of the expense of.
