So,
now, instead of our beloved Zoo, we are being offered the Downtown
Airpark; what the heck is that? Maybe they will drag out their rickety,
worn-out Ferris wheel to attract attendees.
Shame on
the zoo trustees for turning this over to casino promoters, who could
not compete with the Zoo Amp, so they bought it — a classic business
strategy.
OKC has never been a concert mecca, and
losing the Zoo lineup brings us closer to being a musical wasteland.
With all of the positive things happening in OKC, this loss is a real
step backward.
Will the last person to leave the Zoo please turn out the lights?
