@FreddyLA7 As an American, the Canadians absolutely got poutine right. Holy cow.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@FreddyLA7 +1 for Niagara Falls. Make a point to go since you’re so close!

@Skip_1951 @getnickwright @USMNT A single yellow resets. If they get a second yellow in the group it does NOT.

@7ra8h @abosalaharena If it’s Florida to California it’s about 5 hours in flight, but Florida is 3 hours ahead of California so it’s a net difference of 2 hours. I do thst trip a lot personally!

@rodrigokta @Donramonfc1 Well it’s also 115 degrees there in a typical summer day. Dry heat or not, that’s no joke. Yes the stadium is inside but if a team is practicing around it that would likely be outdoors.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@iSlimfit Not most. All were in place. The US did not build a single stadium for the World Cup. The only thing that was done was pull out Artificial Turf in some and put in Real Grass for the tournament. We have over 100 stadiums that seat 60k or more. Plenty of good ones we didn’t use.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@_Anas127 @kevi7e There is not really a “back to normal”. There’s no physical difference than what it is normally, other than in some stadiums they had to replace artificial turf with grass. Structurally they are identical.

@johnkonrad @Delta You book a “Basic” ticket? If so zone 8 boarding is called out in the T&C. Plus…lifetime miles means nothing until you hit 1M. Assuming that’s the case, neither of these things are new aspects of the program.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

I have said this over and over again. Except for full stadium events (Jags, Fl-Ga, etc.) add $5 or $7 or whatever to every ticket sold, and make parking free. Way easier to administer, and you can make it revenue neutral.

@clburns4784 @CityofJax The parking price is due to the Chris Stapleton concert across the street. The parking lots are owned by third-party. We unfortunately have no control over the price.

@DixieBearFren @elsathora Thumbs Up on Jacksonville-awesome time on the river downtown.

@TheLIRRToday The tapers union is probably different than the painters union lol

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@AlbaneseLaura This is what Laura is thinking right now.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@JHershey21 And it better start at either :05 or :35 after the hour.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@BBGreatMoments I say no. When the runner diverted from the direct path, he was avoiding a defensive player that did not have the ball. Close play but I think it stands.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@HeathenKirk @BBGreatMoments Not at all. The runner was safe if not for an absolutely perfect throw.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@NUCLRGOLF The LIV event is just dumb, but give me Augusta and Sawgrass every day.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@ellafranco_ We need to sacrifice a live chicken. Or as an alternative, a bucket of KFC.

[Steve Congro @SteveCongro]

@GolfDigest He signed up for this “tour”. Sawgrass looked just fine last month…just saying. If he stayed with the PGA he could have played there for $4.5M.

@OleTimeHardball Can I vote for the entire late 80s Mets? The dynasty that would have been.
