I was wondering why they haven't given details for ticket purchase for the F1 race yet. I hope they get this figured out...I really want to go to the F1 race in November!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your Captain speaking.
Remain calm, pay no attention to the fire belching out of that engine.
Do not worry about the horrendous vibration throughout the aircraft.

I was hopeful this would happen without issues but was worried that something deep in the basement would rear it's ugly head. This could be it. Again, hopefully not and the train will get back on track. Lived in Austin for years, it would be a great venue town for this stuff.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

when in the end, this is a simple matter of Bernie being an asshole and wanting to show the world how people bend to his will when he threatens things...

It looks to me like the controller made a promise that the rules of the Trust Fund didn't allow and got called out on it by citizens... so rather than get the State sued / lots of State employees and elected officials fired, the State had to back out of the deal.  Does anyone else see it that way, or am I completely off-base here?

Maybe Bernie's a douche for being really demanding, but he's got a scarce product... he can charge a premium.  Shame on the Texas goernment for agreeing to pay it when they couldn't make good.
