Tom,I like you man but you are way off base on this one. Yesterday was the best ran District tournament that I have been too. The group that put this together should have be commended (including the staff at the Kansas Expocentre) and you go negitive about a three dollar parking fee. Get real; how much did you lay down for a tip for your dinner? How much does parking cost at any other big venues that you have taken wresters too? I bet in both cases it was more than $3. I was at all of the same meetings you were at. While parking was not discussed; Mark let everyone know his contract with the Expo was based on the gate. District One did not have to pay a rental fee to use the facilities.

We had almost 700 wrestlers at the tournament, nobody wrestled on anything less than a half mat surface, all 14 and 16's were on full circles, the tournament started at 8:30am as advertised, nobody had to stand in line waiting for a bathroom stall to open up, WE HAD CHAIR BACK SEATS, and we were done wrestling by 2:30pm. How many other Districts can say the same about their experiences yesterday? Please appreciate what you are getting for the money
