…Or Cut Bait

Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:

Well, who’d want to watch them anyway, the Vikings suck so who cares that bigshots get free box seats?

When it comes to kleptocracy, it’s tempting to say “so you’re the richest, most powerful man…in Bolivia.  So what?”

Box seats at the Vikings are like that.

But it’s the principle of the thing…

    ” After the initial request for information was made, several other officials—including the mayor of Minneapolis and her husband, several state commissioners, Minneapolis’ city attorney, and city council members—also wrote checks reimbursing the board for the tickets they had apparently used.”

    Interesting that they wrote the checks AFTER they were exposed. Never occurred to these “special” folks to write the check in advance of use of the seats.
