From the New York Post: President Donald Trump was hailed with massive cheers in Philadelphia Saturday, as he attended the NCAA Men’s Division I Wrestling Championship.
The crowd rose to its feet and heartily applauded Trump as he entered the Wells Fargo Arena and stood on the event floor for about a minute waving to the onlookers.
Broadcaster ESPN even interrupted an interview with national champion Carter Starocci to cut to the president’s grand entrance.
As Trump took his seat the crowd chanted “U-S-A, U-S-A.”
Several Trump allies were seen in front row seats at the event, including Elon Musk, OutKick founder Clay Travis, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Education Secretary and former WWE executive Linda McMahon, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, Sen. Dave McCormick R-Pa., McCormick’s wife, and others.
Travis posted a photo earlier, revealing he was among those who had flown on Air Force One with the President to attend the event.

I’ve been watching the NCAA Wrestling finals for at least 20 years.
Trump is the first President to make an appearance.
Good choice. Definitely his crowd. pic.twitter.com/6QDdqFhhL7
