———They ran out of buses———
I calculated yesterday it would take 923 buses to bring the 65,000 faithful to the stadium. That is more buses that Mayor Nagin failed to use to evacuate New Orleans. Charlotte lacks the space to park 923 buses.
After the dreamers planned the event, the logisticians who tallied the number of buses, the parking available, the cost, and the impossibility of managing such a logistical task, the event was cancelled.
Pie in the sky failed when subjected to reality.
