Zac Brown will be singing the National Anthem with the Marine Band on Sunday at the UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House lawn. During a recent interview on “The Pat McAfee Show”, he said his upcoming performance has nothing to do with politics. “Man, I’m there for the troops. I’m there to honor America. This is patriotism, not politics for me. [Eff] all the division. I don’t believe in that. I love this country. “I love all the people that have sacrificed so that I can live my American dream and that everyone that lives here gets a chance to do that . . . There’s gonna be like 8,000 active servicemen that are going to be there. I’m a massive UFC fan.” Zac also added that he’s honored that UFC CEO Dana White has given him the opportunity to be part of the historical event.

That’s why I wanted to make a coffee that works just as hard. “You know, I begin each morning with a head full of dreams, a notepad full of ideas, and a cup or two of coffee.”
