    i recently read they startd arresting registered guests at hotel bars, too.

    i have to wonder just what the next step will be...

    I believe both stories come out of Irving, if I read them correctly, and are refering to the exact same situation and event (ie the date line on both articles is the same date). Which if you know the DFW area you would begin to understand why such stupidity is happening.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    What city is always after extra income because it fails to maintain its budget? What event was happening in the Dallas Area during that time frame? Which would generate extra revenue for the city.
