This is bad for LRC! Site traffic will suffer because there won't be a dozen threads worth of Eugene hate during the event. I hope for the sake of your revenues that at least some of the clicks can be replaced with whining about heat, humidity, NYC hotel prices, and the aroma of urine.
New York is easier to get to than Tallahassee or Akron for people not in the East Coast, so that's a big win.
Way superior to Eugene, too. If I'm going to pay through the nose for travel to USAs, I'd far rather have it with access to NYC amenities than college town bar fare.
A really windy track in the middle of nowhere with homeless camps all around the stadium. Think I’ll skip it
What are you talking about??? I've gone to Icahn 2-3 times a year for the last 10 years. Never seen a homeless camp and I remember wind being an issue just once.
