The Clemson Football team is at the White House Monday to celebrate their second National Championship in the last three seasons.
Much of the Internet is discussing the burger buffet including McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's that the Tigers were served.
Check out some of the reactions, photos, and comments around the net:
[Insert joke about Hunter Renfrow saying that when he visited the Reagan White House with the 1981 national champions, Clemson didn't eat fast food.] https://t.co/6u2DPdZ8dO

Great being with the National Champion Clemson Tigers last night at the White House. Because of the Shutdown I served them massive amounts of Fast Food (I paid), over 1000 hamberders etc. Within one hour, it was all gone. Great guys and big eaters!

Got a big kick out of the graphics in this @washingtonpost analysis detailing the cost (and exact location) of all those burgers, fries and chicken nuggets for the @ClemsonFB celebration at the White House. Hilarious. https://t.co/l8KzvoQONI pic.twitter.com/rCxlGXg2Oi

Asked which of the fast food eats he likes best, "I like it all," said @POTUS. "It's all great stuff." Said it'll be interesting to see how much is left, after the Clemson team fills up. Thinks they'll like it better than anything else the WH could serve. pic.twitter.com/8mlPIREZmu

Look, I get I’m wired a little differently, but Clemson players are going to have a story for life (on top of the whole winning another title thing). Eating fast food off silver platters in a candle-lit room inside the White House? Hilarious.

Trump knew that Clemson has some “very large people that like to eat” so he went out and got 1000 fast food hamburgers pic.twitter.com/totO3JXInT

Dabo closes out his White House speech by reading passages from the late Tyler Trent's Indy Star essay. Awesome.

Table in State Dining Room groaning under the weight of dozens of Big Macs, and other fast food - chow for Clemson NCAA championship football team (and the famously fast food loving President). No heat lamps so it gets cold fast and the grease congeals

About 1/3 of the team didn't attend though majority were guys no longer obligated (ie graduated) so not necessarily anyone sitting out for political purposes. https://t.co/BEKL1XjIP5
