President Trump reports $122k worth of free event tickets in 2025
President Donald Trump, a frequent fan at major sporting competitions, was given $122,050 in tickets to 10 events last year, according to his annual filing released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics on Wednesday.
As reported by Front Office Sports, the Secret Service spent almost $800,000 guarding Trump at four events. Trump's trip to the 2025 Daytona 500 resulted in $561,842.63 of Secret Service expenses, with $335,000-plus of that amount spent on hotels.
The highest value of tickets Trump received in 2025 was $50,000 for 10 tickets to Super Bowl LIX, won by the Philadelphia Eagles over the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans. The tickets were a gift from New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson.
