U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans for the first-ever Patriot Games, a four-day athletic competition featuring top high school athletes from each U.S. state and territory, to mark America’s 250th anniversary next year. The event, unveiled in a video by Freedom 250, has sparked online chatter, with some users comparing it to "The Hunger Games" as "one young man and one young woman from each state and territory" are scheduled to take part, similar to the plot of the dystopian action film.
