DraftKings distances itself from comedian Tony Hinchcliffe after Trump rally performance

Tony Hinchcliffe’s future as a DraftKings partner is in question after the comedian made multiple racist jokes at former president Donald Trump’s campaign rally Sunday at Madison Square Garden.

Hinchcliffe, known as “Kill Tony,” has been a DraftKings brand ambassador for several months, but a source with knowledge of the situation tells Front Office Sports that the sports betting company is evaluating the Austin-based comedian’s status as an ambassador.

Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” said Latinos “love making babies,” used an antisemitic trope and said he “carved watermelons” with a Black rally attendee.
