Colorado constituents reportedly paid for their GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert to cheer on in-person her fling as he competed in a prestigious cross-country mountain bike race.
Federal Election Commission records suggest Boebert dipped into campaign coffers to cover the $339.94 price tag for "event tickets" to be there for Aspen bar owner Quinn Gallagher, 46, to perform at the Leadville Trail 100 MTB back on August 12, according to an exclusive report in The Daily Mail.
The race occurred prior to the revelation of their romance going public.

That happened a month later when he served as the 36-year-old grandmother's date and was ejected with her after being captured on surveillance footage vaping, canoodling, and singing along in the orchestra section of a Denver theatre to take in the Broadway show "Beetlejuice."
Boebert tried to apologize a day later.
“Whether it was the excitement of seeing a much-anticipated production or the natural anxiety of being in a new environment, I genuinely did not recall vaping that evening when I discussed the night's events with my campaign team while confirming my enthusiasm for the musical,” Boebert said in a statement. “It’s clear now that was not accurate.”
When The Mail attempted to reach Boebert's office they apparently were unresponsive.
Boebert watched Gallagher place 774th out of 1,788 cyclists competing in what is dubbed the "most prestigious endurance cross-country MTB events in the world."
The theatre incident took place while Boebert was divorcing her 42-year-old husband of 18 years, Jayson Boebert.
The couple are raising four children.
Gallagher is the owner of the Hooch Craft Cocktail Bar tucked in Aspen.
The Mail also found that Boebert spent $137.71 of campaign funds on an Uber, and noted it amounts to the approximate cost of a fare between Hooch and the Boebert's Silt, Colorado home.
