Donald Trump will visit a swing state just three days before the presidential election when he attends Penn State’s college football game against Ohio State.

And according to Yahoo! Ross Dellenger of sportsTrump’s team is making plans for him to attend the showdown in State College.

While the visit has not yet ended, Penn State noted that they were aware that a “private citizen” had invited Trump to the game “as a guest in his suite.”

“The United States Secret Service is working with University Police and Public Safety and other state and local authorities on the security measures that are implemented around the presence of presidential candidates,” they continued in the statement, published by reporter Ben Jones.

‘With that in mind, we encourage fans, anyone visiting campus, and all game attendees to arrive early to the game or their intended destinations.

The visit to Penn State would come after the former president appeared at Alabama’s matchup against Georgia last month.

In that case, fans noted at X that Trump’s presence required increased security, leading to atrociously long lines for fans.

Trump sat near famed golfer John Daly, musician Kid Rock, Alabama Sen. Katie Britt and senator and former football coach Tommy Tuberville.

Trump also attended the Pittsburgh Steelers’ victory over the New York Jets last Sunday night.

The 78-year-old arrived midway through the first quarter and was greeted by a small crowd of supporters wearing Pittsburgh jerseys and carrying a banner that read “Trump Nation.”

He later waved from his suite, as some fans chanted “USA.”

However, franchise legends Jerome Bettis and ‘Mean’ Joe Greene issued statements after endorsing Trump’s rival for the presidency, Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.

“I know this city and I love it, we work hard to make things happen,” Bettis said in a video message posted to his Threads account.

‘There is no hot air. No bull. This is what defines Steel City, and it is the opposite of what Donald Trump represents. Donald Trump has made promise after promise to the city of Pittsburgh, and time and time again he has failed to deliver.

And it’s time for us to elect a leader who will fight for us. Someone who will roll up their sleeves and get the job done. Not just complain about it in a half-empty place. “There is only one person in this race who meets those requirements: Vice President Kamala Harris.”

In a video posted to the Kamala for PA account on X, Green added: “You sure got my vote.”

On the other hand, Trump received the support of a pair of former Steelers: wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell.
