"Major Dallas Event" May Be Moving to Fair Park. Dunno What or When. Will Tomorrow.

I've spent the better part of the last hour trying to figure out what in the wide, wide world of sports this means. Alas, there's not a Fair Park or Park and Rec higher-up available to talk -- never have so many taken so many meetings at the exact same...

I've spent the better part of the last hour trying to figure out what in the wide, wide world of sports this means. Alas, there's not a Fair Park or Park and Rec higher-up available to talk -- never have so many taken so many meetings at the exact same time.

But I did find out this much: The Fair Park Twitter account is maintained by the Friends of Fair Park. And I did speak to someone there, who said only this much and no more: "It refers to a board that may move their event to Fair Park. It's a major Dallas event." And that was that. I am told there should be a tweet tomorrow accompanied by a press release.

Till then, I'm all for wild speculation. This, maybe? Unless, like, you know.
