How do fans feel about the White House hosting UFC Freedom 250?

Due to Covid-19, Splash and Cody, two therapy dogs, have not been able to visit with patients, so they made a special trip to see staff on August 27, 2021. They received many pets and belly rubs for two hours. Splash is retiring since he lost his eyesight. Cody will visit TMC once a week and hopes to see patients in the pediatric unit soon.
