    I’m sure it has nothing to do with the massive requests for refunds.

      As someone in the area nah. Im a little south but NY cancelled everything. My friend was supposed to go see Prodigy last night and even that was cancelled. Today there were several other big events that as of a few days ago said yup were still on, but cancelled last night as well. Its a quiet weekend of staying in, thankfully from what ive seen it doesnt seem as bad as it sounded.

          Thanks, ill probably jinx it but so far its not bad at all where I am. We legit lose power on average once a month, our area is awful for some reason. So far that hasnt happened yet and is amazing, but kind of crazy and I still expect it to happen.

    People really need to boycott anything at these stadiums

    Kraft get every other NFL to jump on board with this, but there’s more reasons than just Gaza for Americans to be pissed at these stadiums we pay for and billionaires control and profit from

      3 other NFL stadium owners colluded with him to ban Sheeran if he didn’t fire Macklemore.

      • Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper
      • Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank
      • Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie

        Every NFL stadium has 8-10 NFL games a year…

        Maybe a couple playoffs. Out of 365 days they have less than a dozen games.

        Like you said, there’s a huge demand for those. But the bulk of tickets are for concerts and other shit, that is where pressure is best applied. Because there’s lots of other reasons to boycott stadium concerts anyways.

        Like, that’s the great part of living in dystopias, there’s never just one reason for people to coalesce around a single topic.

    While I wonder if this would have occurred without the backlash, I’d bet it also means the hit Kraft and Co will take will probably be softened by an insurance payout.

      I’m sure they’re doing this specifically because of the backlash. Not only is he getting paid still, but now there won’t be a big protest about him being an asshole at his stadium.

      Disney doesn’t close for hurricanes.

      Everything everyone in the Epstein class does is about money. And they don’t lose it.

        You’d think the insurance company wouldn’t want to give up the money either and would therefore see through the bullshit. Unfortunately, the Epstein class has solidarity so they’ll probably pay out without fuss.

    God must still hate New England masturbators instead of this coincidental opinion on genociders.

      Ha ha, the evangelicals always blame the gays. Always. Hurricanes? Because the gays. Earthquakes, gays. It’s sheer projection clearly, god and jesus hate them, not us that support liberty.

    Wait, is it bad when you don’t say that bad things are bad? I’ve been lying and saying that pineapple on pizza isn’t a crime, but now I’m gonna be a lot more cautious.
