Oh, my. I had considered poor ticket sales as a possible real reason, but I chose a more charitable excuse. Thanks for looking into it.
Please. The dinner was three months away. Tickets go on sale two weeks ago and they have a fire sale on one the hottest fundraisers in the country, Sarah Palin? I’m not buying this.
I agree with your assessment that something is not right about this. I’ve never heard of this organization (but then again I don’t know if every military charity organization in CO), and I was previously married to a service member. Security concerns without any direct threats? Doesn’t make any sense. Centennial is on the very southern edge of “Denver” in Arapahoe county where the population is much more conservative compared to the city of Denver, Aurora and especially north Denver and Boulder area. Centennial is closer to El Paso county so if they had legitimate concerns about safety, the organization could’ve easily moved the event into El Paso county which is significantly conservative with a lot a lot a lot of military bases.
