    That is still one of the most surreal moments to come out of that whole mess.

    I just don’t understand how it was allowed to play out. At some point, someone had to decide that going ahead with it was more important than waiting a day and finding a suitable location.

    For the life of me I can’t remember what the press conference was about, only the screw up.
