‘It was awesome!’ – Dana White seems unfazed after alleged gunman fires shots at White House Correspondent’s Dinner

Dana White seemed to be thrilled by the chaos surrounding the White House Correspondent’s Dinner tonight.

UFC CEO White was one of a number of key business and political figures who joined President Donald Trump for the annual event tonight in Washington. The President was rushed off stage after reports of a gunman firing shots at the Washington Hilton Hotel.

But the fight promoter – who is planning to host UFC White House on June 14 – doesn’t seem to be taking it all that seriously. President Trump and his cabinet have been confirmed safe after the incident.

Dana White was one of a number of guests evacuated from the White House Correspondent’s Dinner tonight in Washington. Just weeks out from his own event in the capital to celebrate the United States’ 250th birthday, he seemed to laugh off the threat of a gunman after everyone was confirmed safe.

Speaking with USA Today, White posed for photos with other attendees while giving his side of what happened. “(Suddenly), it just started getting noisy,” he explained. “Tables getting flipped over, guys running in with guns and they were screaming ‘Get down.’ I didn’t get down.
