President-elect Donald Trump received a warm welcome from fans at Madison Square Garden during UFC 309, marking his first appearance at the venue since winning the election. The sold-out crowd of 19,500 erupted in applause as Trump, accompanied by UFC boss Dana White, entered the arena.
Speculation about Trump's attendance had been circulating throughout the week, and confirmation came from Margo Martin, Trump's deputy director of communications, who shared a video of the President-elect boarding his jet to New York.
