That looked really smooth from Cain/Leduc.
OT, but yep, C/L were in the zone. Now they can wing their way to 2019-2020 Skate America, and spend time at a few casinos while they're at it, eh.
That's exciting news! But I wonder what the plan is to keep skaters', officials' and fans' attention on business at the arena and away from the casinos!
Also, what with event ticket and airline prices, not to mention hotel and venue transportation costs, etc., it looks like some fans may have to try their luck at some of the casinos just to get back home. I mean that's if they have anything left at all to bet with. Las Vegas SA is for people with bucks to spare or a load saved up, eh! Exciting nonetheless. Destiny Calls in the Desert! Maybe someone might hit the jackpot, in more ways than one.
I think SA tends to be more packed than it's looking at the arena in Detroit these past days! My God, it looks like a wasteland in the Little Caesar's arena. No Japanese fans to fill the seats.
Come to think of it, maybe the name, 'Little Caesar's Arena' may have conjured up ideas for USFS of bigger and better crowds in Vegas. But that's putting cart before the horse unless and until they figure out how to better promote the sport to attract a larger audience.
If the ticket prices were more reasonable, they might get better crowds, but I guess they can't take the chance of lowering prices in the hopes of attracting enough attendees. Still, USFS needs to hire somone who knows how to creatively sell the sport of figure skating to U.S. consumers. There's so much excitement and drama in figure skating, I'm not sure why the fed can't get with it and find a promoter who gets figure skating and can then create buzz, excitement and interest among a wider audience.
seems weird because Vegas is usually lower fare. But am thinking about it. Sounds like a FSU party is in order
