Mike Pence appears to be a Butler fan by association.
The vice president will be attending the Butler-North Carolina game in Memphis on Friday, according to Sara K. Clarke and David Williams of USA TODAY Sports. Pence's wife Karen attended Butler.
A spokesman for the city of Memphis confirmed Pence would be in attendance and there are temporary flight restrictions for "VIP movement."
The Bulldogs will be hoping to advance to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2010-11, where they made the title game.
