Former President Donald Trump was the center of attention in the Hawkeye State on Saturday, as the leading GOP candidate for president in 2024 partied with an Iowa State fraternity, flipped burgers, and even threw footballs into the crowd of those gathered to see him.
Iowa State University, based in Ames, Iowa, faced off Saturday against in-state rival University of Iowa, in Ames. Before the game, Trump visited the Alpha Gamma Rho (AGR) agriculture fraternity house–where he threw footballs lined up on a beer pong table into the crowd of those gathered to see him.
