"Many of y'all asked how you can support and donate to our female athletes and the celebrations. So I created a Go Fund Me. I'm hopeful this can have an impact beyond the weekend and help those that represent the best of the US."
"Flav, a founding member of the pioneering hip hop group Public Enemy, offered the squad a Las Vegas trip for a real celebration with dinners and shows, sharing a formal email he said was sent to the players."
Flavor Flav announced plans to host a She Got Game weekend event from July 16-19 in Las Vegas in partnership with MGM Resorts to celebrate the US women's ice hockey team's gold medal from the Milano Cortina Olympics and recognize achievements of other female Olympians and Paralympians. The 66-year-old rapper, a longtime supporter of women's sports, is organizing dinners and shows for the athletes. He also launched a GoFundMe campaign to support US women's Olympic medallists. The invitation came after the women's hockey team declined to attend President Trump's State of the Union address, citing logistics and travel issues.
