San Hoooo Airport Brand Spanking New Terminal B

The $1.3 billion terminal features 200-foot-long skylights along the concourse and seating areas that are completely wired with several electrical outlets. The terminal also has an art display and eateries distinct to the South Bay.





There are no moving walkways... the most "technologically advanced" airport has no people movers. Apparently solar panels, abundant USB port chargers/electrical outlets and free wi-fi is technologically advanced. Oh don't forget a body scanner at security. "I see London, I see France, I see this person doesn't wear a gun or underpants"

and were completely ignoring the fact the Japanese built an airport in the middle of the sea a long time ago.

Uuutah

So the University of Utah got invited to the PAC-10... urrr 12.

Congrats. Goodbye chance at ever winning a conference baseball/basketball championship.

Yes, I know, the reason they did it was for football. An $18 million payout on the Rose Bowl is a lot prettier than a $1 million pay out on the Las Vegas Bowl.

Hell the 4th/5th place PAC-10 participants stay on the strip at least for the Vegas Bowl. The MWC is housed up in the Freaking Golden Nugget.


Bellagio fountains way trump whatever the crap that screen saver is shown downtown on the ceiling.

So worst case scenario, same bowl game but better accommodations.

But you do have to watch out Utah. More money, more problems.

No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance...
—United States Code Section 20, [1]


Because of that little diddy, they created Title IX.

The regulations implementing Title IX require all universities receiving federal funds to perform self-evaluations of whether they offer equal opportunities based on sex.

Looking at the fight song's lyrics.

For Alma Mater's sons and daughters...


Who am I, sir, A Utah Man am I!


There is no "equal opportunity" in the Utah fight song.

Shame on U, University of Utah. shame shame shame.
