Worcester, MA Police Use Excessive Force, Engage in Sexual Contact with Prostitutes while On Duty, Fed Report Says:

https://www.scribd.com/document/80270980...from_embed

My hometown PD has always been known for corruption and abuses. The Justice Department shares this opinion.

"The Department of Justice (DOJ) opened an investigation of the Worcester Police Department (WPD) and the City of Worcester (City) on November 15, 2022. Based on this investigation, DOJ has reasonable cause to believe that WPD and the City engage in a pattern or practice of conduct that deprives people of their rights under the Constitution and federal law. First, WPD uses excessive force. Second, WPD engages in outrageous government conduct by permitting undercover officers to participate in sexual contact with women suspected of being involved in the commercial sex trade"

Not here. U of MN football games are as much as pro games. Football is the real scam. At least I can get nosebleed seats for baseball without breaking the bank.

Ditto with the Longhorns. Hell, they've got a bigger following here than either the Cowboys or the Texans.

Those prices are insane. I can get into an All Blacks match (as long as it’s not a championship game) for under $50 (about $30 US). 

And to say Kiwis are passionate about rugby is an understatement.

Depending on the game, prices here are sky-high and then there's getting to the stadium/arena (which don't seem to be in easily accessed areas) and probably paying a premium for parking.  Zeus forbid if you want a drink or something to eat as the prices are insane.

Damn. I can get lower bowl, 40-yard line seats for Air Force games for $40. Colorado State is paying off a new stadium, so lower bowl tix run $60-$80. Lower bowl at mile high? Face starts at over $400, for end zone seats, last time I checked, and actual cost is well over $1,000. But, at least your frozen ass might show up for 3.9 seconds on the live feed so you can ask all your buddies if they saw you.
