I hate to be so cynical but when they said yesterday the Sugar Bowl had been stopped and then later said it would go on today, I thought “They want to make money and they’ll hope nobody gets killed but the bosses figure it’s worth the risk to make that cash.”
They have no idea if the bumblers who set up a place for a driver to avoid the one squad car and simply move to the side and drive on the sidewalk unimpeded would somehow become competent leaders overnight.
They just point fingers when they inevitably screw up due to incompetence.
