Expect longer than usual lines to get in and a long finals session. Regardless of your persuasion, it’s still a great showcasing of our sport.

He was in Tulsa for finals a couple years ago. Didn’t disrupt it too much. Just be sure to get there early!

Great having a President who enjoys watching College Wrestling.

I think he just likes going places that will cheer for him

Well, more TV time for wrestling I'm sure.

I also think he appreciates intense environments. He goes to the Army/Navy football game, because it is an amazing experience with all the loyalty and excitement.
He has always given a lot of respect to wrestlers. It is great press for us, although some people may start keying any cars with a "my son wrestles" bumper sticker.
I love it when he was with a college team, (I think it was either the Hawks or PSU) honoring them, and he was making a joke about how the guys on the team were more interested in talking to Jim Jordan than talking to him, just because Jim was a NCAA champ.

The last one did too. He thought he was watching gymnastics the whole time, but he enjoyed it.

I read Jim Jordan was the last person to beat John Smith

I believe that was Gil Sanchez of Nebraska.

You think Philly is THAT place? lol

I think Saturday night of the NCAA wrestling finals is that place, no matter what city is hosting.

Yes, I think I remember John losing to Sanchez in the beginning of his junior year. Maybe I remember John winning in the finals against Sanchez that year.

 

[Mr.OSU]

Whether you like him or not it’s good for the sport to get some spotlight.

Yes, 18-4. I seem to remember reading somewhere how much that loss propelled him.

Secret service took over security this morning so if you’re coming to the finals, give yourself plenty of time beforehand to get in.

I'm parking in Lot C and they sent me an email discouraging the use of Well Fargo Center lots, but if I really wanted to use my parking pass that I paid good money for, I should expect long delays and car searches by the secret service. Just great!!

Make parking at events great again!

So I stayed over by Rittenhouse square. The subway from city hall to the arena was super easy and convenient. Outside of a couple low life locals smoking it was a good experience and it saved me a couple hundred in uber costs I was planning for.

Maybe Trump is planning on not attending the entire finals.

This is gonna be the longest finals ever and I have a 10 hour drive tomorrow. Then an 8 hour round trip on Monday. I hate me.

I think it would just be suspicious if you cleaned out the wagon now.

I told SS to look for the orange people in 221 and arrest all of them now and sort it all out later. The good news is that you are being given a free vacation to central America. Enjoy the warm weather. I envy you!! Don't forget, I'm your friend. You can count on me.
