WATCH: UFC’s Dana White Says Experience at WHCD Shooting Was ‘F-cking Awesome,’ and That He ‘Literally Took Every Minute of it in’

White spoke to reporters and made the extremely on-brand comments immediately after the incident at the Washington Hilton hotel.

“It started getting noisy,” White told reporters. “Tables getting flipped over, guys running in with guns. And they were screaming, ‘Get down!’ But I didn’t get down. It was f***ing awesome. I literally took every minute of it in. It was a pretty crazy, unique experience.”

The UFC head continued, “We were sitting right in front of the table, right in front of where the president was. Guys came in, looking for shooters. They came toward our table. I thought the shooter was over by us or something, but no. It was a unique experience.”
