Is this fake news?

No, it's real. The weird California law that won't allow state funds to be used for travel to states they don't like is causing it.

The NCAA is apparently covering the cost, but supposedly taking it out of money paid to final four teams? That last part is unverified.

So the NCAA is footing the bill. Is this fair to the other teams or should the NCAA pay for all?

The NCAA pays for the travel and hotels of all the teams in the tournament. That’s from the First Four to the Final Four.

If a team wanted to pay for a larger traveling party, they would have to foot the bill for anything over the NCAA limits.

In return, NCAA shouldn't be hosting any tournaments in California!

"When North Carolina in 2016 banned transgender people from using the bathroom of their gender identity in public buildings, California retaliated by banning state-funded travel to that state and any other state with laws it deemed discriminatory against LGBTQ people."

So the retaliation by all known forms of logic is itself discriminatory. Ahhh the irony. Unfortunately that irony is lost on those people because they can't even tell you what a woman is. ~ True story.

"Today, the ban includes 23 states" ~ <smh> #NationalDivorce is trending on Twitter and I'm all for it. Delusional people are dangerous.

Makes one wonder why this thread was started in the first place.
To start a raging political fracas? Like, I wanted to post something about Trump being indicted yesterday, but I didn't because it would've started a raging political fracas. So I just petted my dog instead and told him what a good boy he was. Then we milled around in the yard for awhile.

"I didn't want to post about Trump being indicted so I just did it on an unrelated thread anyway."
