The Clemson Tigers had an unbelievable season of College Football, ultimately ending the year as undefeated champions and bulldozing any opposition they faced.
You’d think that reaching that level of athletic achievement would result in a pretty significant reward, yet when the team arrived at the White House for a meal with Trump they were greeted with a bunch of stale fast-food and chips bearing the presidential signature.
Not exactly a fantastic celebration, especially for such an incredible achievement.
“We ordered American fast food, paid for by me. Lots of hamburgers, lots of pizza,” Trump said after returning to the White House from a trip to New Orleans. “We have some very large people that like eating, so I think we’re going to have a little fun.”
Of course, Trump ordered the food because the US Government is currently in shutdown, resulting in non-essential employees like catering staff not getting paid and resulting in the shit-heap of fast food that you see before you.
But some people aren’t as trashy as Trump, one Michelin-starred chef has agreed to host the team for a fancy feast.
“I could care less about college football. But I’m personally inviting the Clemson Tigers team and coaches to Chicago to experience what an actual celebration dinner should be.
I’m not joking.
Someone let them know what The Alinea Group does. It’ll be worth it
Nick Kokonas heads a restaurant group that oversees many exclusive establishments, places that people would chop off a leg to get in while agreeing to snack on it later.
Fingers crossed that the Clemson lads get the opportunity to dine to their hearts content.
