https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/425639-ayesha-curry-invites-clemson-tigers-to-real-feast-andAyesha Curry, the wife of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, invited Clemson University's football team to her restaurant for a "real feast and celebration" after President Trump treated the players to fast food at the White House.
"[International Smoke] will gladly feed the Clemson Tigers any day," Ayesha Curry tweeted, referencing the restaurant she helped launch with Chef Michael Mina.
"A real feast and celebration. No 10 cent dipping sauces on silver platters."
Ayesha Curry, who is also a bestselling cookbook author, offered the invitation after a Twitter user joked that it was no "No wonder why" her husband said he didn't want to attend the White House following the Warriors' NBA championship in 2017.

Costs more to feed her the good stuff, but I actually care about my dog.
He eats great and he's a lean, healthy 80 lb. dog. I wouldn't think of giving him that crap that Trump fed the Clemson football team.

(3,145 posts)7. A couple thoughts
1. These offers could run afoul of NCAA regs concerning illegal benefits, potentially jeopardizing their eligibility and scholarships.
2. From all reports, the Clemson players enjoyed the food and the visit. If so why are people making such a BFD out of this?
Really, it looks petty and nitpicky. Folks getting outraged on behalf of people that aren't outraged and don't seem to want us to be either.
