Wristband — Failure To Communicate

Alas, sweeties, we tried, but the mystery of obtaining a wristband for tonight continues. It appears that organizers aren’t on the same information page.

As reported Tuesday by SweetCharity, the Big D NYE website advised folks that the “timeframe” for obtaining bracelets at local Tom Thumb was over, finished, done.

But if you read today’s Dallas Morning News, Big D NYE spokesperson John McGill said that despite reports the infamous bands were still available at Tom Thumb. Now, the ABC-Channel 8 noon news reported the NYE bracelets can be found at the event entrance at Victory Park tonight and the American Airlines Center box office. No mention of TT.

So, we toddled on over to the Tom Thumb in Preston Center and were told by the customer service staff that we could have up to four.

Shoot! Who are you going to believe: the website, the spokesperson, the media outlet? Strother would not be happy.

Good news, though: DART promises that it’s cleaned up its act since Texas-OU and they’re ready for the invasion of 40,000 into downtown Dallas.

Think we’ll just take a pass and watch The Thin Man marathon tonight. No wristband required.
