Hillary Clinton Gives Mark Cuban Front Row Seat to Debate in Blatant Attempt to Psyche Out Trump
Dallas Mavericks owner and Shark Tank star Mark Cuban has been known to make his presence felt while sitting in the front row at his team’s games. Whether it’s by yelling at the refs, or criticizing them on Twitter, or even coming out on to the court, the Mavericks owner has frequently gotten involved in the action from his front-row seat.
And thanks to the Hillary Clinton campaign, that’s exactly where he’ll be on Monday night.
The democratic nominee has given Cuban a prime ticket to watch the first presidential debate at Hofstra University on Long Island.
Just got a front row seat to watch @HillaryClinton overwhelm @realDonaldTrump at the “Humbling at Hofstra” on Monday. It Is On !

The ticket is a coup for Cuban, who has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump‘s over the past few months after initially supporting him. Last week, Cuban offered Trump $10 million to a charity of his choice if he agreed to a four-hour interview with Cuban focused strictly on policy.
CNN reports that the Clinton campaign was only too happy to accommodate the Mavericks owner. The network quotes an unnamed Clinton aide as saying: “He has the best seat we have access to.”
Clinton’s press secretary, Brian Fallon, confirmed the news on Twitter:
If you have ever seen @mcuban courtside at a Mavs game, you know he’ll be fired up for Monday’s debate. #ImwithHer
