Donald Trump is set to visit a swing state just three days before the presidential election when he attends Penn State’s college football game against Ohio State.
The No. 3 Nittany Lions will host the No. 4 Buckeyes on November 2 in a massive Big Ten clash.
And according to Yahoo! Sports’ Ross Dellenger, Trump’s team is making plans for him to attend the matchup in State College.
While the visit has not yet been finalized, Penn State noted that they were aware a ‘private citizen’ had invited Trump to the game ‘as a guest in their suite.’
‘The U.S. Secret Service is working with University Police and Public Safety and other state and local law enforcement on safety and security measures that are put into place around the presence of presidential candidates,’ they continued in the statement, which was posted by reporter Ben Jones.

‘With that in mind, we encourage fans, anyone visiting campus and all those attending the game to arrive early to the game or to their intended destinations.
The visit to Penn State would come after the former President popped up at Alabama’s matchup against Georgia last month.
In that instance, fans noted on X that Trump’s presence necessitated enhanced security, leading to egregiously long lines for fans.
Trump sat near famous golfer John Daly, musician Kid Rock, Alabama senator Katie Britt and senator and former longtime head football coach Tommy Tuberville.
Trump also attended the Pittsburgh Steelers’ win over the New York Jets last Sunday night.
The 78-year-old arrived about midway through the first quarter and was greeted by a small crowd of supporters wearing Pittsburgh jerseys toting a banner that read ‘Trump Nation.’
He later waved from his suite, with some fans chanting ‘USA.’
However, franchise legends Jerome Bettis and ‘Mean’ Joe Greene both released statements afterwards endorsing Trump’s rival for the presidency, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

‘I know this city and I love this city – we work hard to make things happen,’ Bettis said in a video message posted to his Threads account.
‘No hot air. No bull. This is what defines the Steel City – and it’s the opposite of what Donald Trump stands for. Donald Trump has made promise after promise to the city of Pittsburgh, and time after time, he’s failed to deliver.
‘And it’s time for us to elect a leader who’s gonna fight for us. Someone who’s gonna roll up their sleeves and get the job done. Not just complain about it at a half-empty venue. There’s only one person in this race who fits that bill: Vice President Kamala Harris.’
In a video posted to the Kamala for PA account on X, Green added: ‘You got my vote for sure.’
On the other hand, Trump received support from a couple of former Steelers in wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell.
