Ironman annoyance

It can be a big deal. I wanted to see hocus pocus with my girlfriend at the palace. We left 30 mins early and tried crossing the race. Instead of crossing they forced every car down 2nd street and across the second street bridge because they wouldn't allow traffic to turn any other way. So essentially a shit load of Kentuckians are having to cross into Indiana then turn right back around to cross again. Thus the second street bridge was backed up all the way till jeffersonville. I sat on the 2nd street bridge for 45 mins and missed the movie at the palace. I'm just glad I didn't buy tickets ahead of time.

Lastly to make matters worse I decided to go to that old candy store in jeffersonville for some buckeye balls but they are closed on Sunday's. So basically going to jeffersonville then waiting in traffic was all a waste of time thanked to Louisville metro and how poorly they plan these events. Hell even thunder has better planned routes for people.

Lastly if you want another story years ago I lived on UofL's campus. They basically cut Uofl and half and force students to pick a side to stay on. But that's not so awesome when you need to meet a professor at the library and can't even walk there because of a stupid race. I'm not even a fan of tosh.0 but he had it right when he did a marathon for charity. He didn't want to be a dick and shut down half the city so he put 100 treadmills on the beach and had people run on those. More power to you. Exercise it good. But there is no need to fuck over a whole city because you want to be an ironman. Even tony stark wouldn't shut down all of New York when it's attacked by aliens.
