It is...I am glad it finally got eaten by Sylvester
The 30 year old boomer in me is both pleased and disgusted with this.

Ya know, i do get all of the points that say it was just mechanical issues and nothing more, truely i do.

And obviously i respect everyones opinion, but im sitting here thinking about it. These superstars they are on planes all the time, going from place to place, so chances are, this is something they have encountered many times before right?

So if thats the case, why would so many superstars be upset? some saying they will never go again? i feel like if it was just mechanical issues then nobody would have said anything like that, instead multiple superstars said they will never go back to Saudi Arabia, some superstars wifes told their husbands to never go there again, kinda odd if it was just a kind of issue they would have encountered many times. Its just...strange.

Like @Solid Snake said, this is the kind of story where we want know the full story for a very long time. So who knows, i suppose we will find out.

Most of their flights aren't 16 hours long. Most of the delays aren't hours upon hours, including many hours stuck on the plane on the tarmac. Most of the delays are in airports that provide restaurants, bars, etc. Most of the delays don't cause a last minute panic that talent will either miss a show or cut it very close to not making it. It's really not all that odd, since this wasn't just a typical delay situation when you consider all of those factors. These were my feelings on this before, because I don't see why so many people are making such a big deal out of that aspect. My opinion only strengthened after Corey Graves discussed the topic on his podcast.
