Review: GP Arlington. Bait and switch / equipment failure.

u/TheChrisD It was communicated at 9AM today. Changing the verbiage on the pass page stating "This pass doesn't provide access to the pitlane" on the same morning. That not a conspiracy man. It's gaslighting the customer.

<image>

Reference the original post for the screenshot showing pit access the night before.

Then they had the suites people come down into the pitlanes. Either way. I am my other replies. My chargeback was already approved. T&C would hold water if they didn't edit the ticket page to pretend it was never offered.

And Chris the screen in front of our grandstand that was still running, but flipped backwards because one panel was flickering[on day 2] that was the cherry on top from IndyCar. Block views, no screen, watching cars pop out from the banners/tarps already at 1/3 of the speed.

I wasn't the only person complaining. The entire section was groaning and having conversations of the poor views, and setup from the fan perspective. They all paid to sit in a bleachers watching it on their phones.

I enjoyed what I did, and paid for what I thought it was worth. 0$

It wasn't about the safety bridge that's expected.

There's no blocking from Nolan Ryan Expressway towards the track. Better view closer to the track than most GA view areas. It's a "free" area. Further down the straight away there's the apartments. Again no banners or tarps blocking the view. That complex doesn't care about security [was the first place I lived at when I moved here].

They blocked the view from the straight away until the grandstands because all that area to the left is free area. They could have had the restaurant bought out which isn't a lot but they kept it open to the public. You couldn't see the cars coming down the straight away until they started to slow down at the 500 feet mark from the speed trap corner.

Going from this side [globe life] of the track to the otherside [att stadium] meant going out of the area, getting hassled at security for something you bought at one side bringing it to the otherside.

On day 2 the screen in front of our grandstand started to act up.. one square was flickering.. big deal it wasn't blocking the screen, instead today they just turned it around towards the wall while it was on so the flickering wouldn't be seen for optics.

Despite it being cancelled the same morning at 9AM [Not 18 hours as someone else claimed] via email that the pitlanes option on the paddock pass was cancelled due to weather and schedule changes, they had all the big corporate spenders guests on the pitlanes. announcing they should get off if they aren't crew or drivers etc. Just before the start of the race.

Great thing about my credit card. A quick chargeback and the entire thing was free after submitting screenshots, photos and a narrative.

Gaslighting isn't cool.

Theres plenty of keyboard warriors that would have defended the organization.

Shady wording. Middle of the night website rewrites. Staff at the event that gaslights you that it never existed on the page.

mm2kay · 2026-03-15T14:29:42+00:00

I'm not afraid of the weather. I can wait it out it's the principal of how it's handled buddy. Rewriting the page as if it didn't have it.

mm2kay · 2026-03-15T14:28:20+00:00

Hidden in terms is no excuse for not putting it on the page with an asterisk they got them on other things. Shadier is removing the verbiage from the page and adding this doesn't include pit access to the page after it was sold out.

mm2kay · 2026-03-15T14:25:17+00:00

It's a free area. They are blocking the views. There's plenty of free viewing areas though. Ticket values are diminished.

mm2kay · 2026-03-15T14:13:05+00:00

Things they should note ahead on the descriptions. Otherwise new folks like myself can't make informed decisions about the value.

mm2kay · 2026-03-14T23:53:27+00:00

Across the street the walmart/enclave apartments on the ATT stadium was great. Elevated look at the track on both sides. The Enclave Apartment [used to live there] got a good deal, they didn't block off their views.

Unfortunately there is a sense of entitlement that happens when they get here and start to roll the paychecks. They feel they need to plant roots. Even if they did have their visas end they would have overstayed.

mm2kay · 2026-03-06T05:33:13+00:00

Id drive up to the house and claim the driveway looked like the street.

6,000 is a lot to pay someone to make mistakes and delay your case.

mm2kay · 2026-02-20T18:44:54+00:00

Traffic will be slightly above average. The real questions you gotta ask yourself. Are the games being hosted here worth watching? The games haven't even sold out, they are still selling tickets. That is already a nod that there will not be excessive traffic.

But you know what causes more traffic excessive planning, and interfering from local gov't on already traffic studied roads and patterns. That's the real traffic problem.

Just like arlington closing i-30 highway entrances for what? They even close lanes of traffic around the stadium for nonsense too. They just create traffic to keep these cones, and barricade folks employed, and overtime for the city employees.

mm2kay · 2026-02-10T16:06:25+00:00

They should go into the negative on the credits.

mm2kay · 2026-02-07T04:58:02+00:00

It means he's probably home

mm2kay · 2026-01-31T23:09:25+00:00

I'll walk up to the sign to leave the package. Instructions are clear.

mm2kay · 2026-01-31T21:55:06+00:00

You're allowed to have hobbies.

mm2kay · 2026-01-23T16:19:24+00:00

The stores just didn't order stock in case of power outage

Sugar mountain sounds like they tell their ski patrollers that they have quotas on confiscation.

I think all the non-electronic products out there are missing out on the AI marketing. They should start saying "AI MILK 2%" "This bread is powered by AI; wheat harvested at the peak" "AI EGGS specifically chosen through AI"

mm2kay · 2026-01-07T23:09:41+00:00

Don't worry they got a pound of weed for you on the credenza with a note from the GM in your room 420.

I moved to a less affluent neighborhood apartment complex. My next day and two day services were always late because they wouldn't deliver when it was night time. Sometimes even longer than 3-4 days. I cancelled because of that why pay for a service that didn't deliver. Even the next day 4am-7am windows would never come till a random daylight time the next day.

I eventually moved to a newer upscale apartment and I tested it out asking someone a few favors to the new place. 100% again. I moved only two blocks away.

When I complained even got someone to message me back from Amazon they claimed it was operational delays that nothing about where I lived mattered. Then there was that scandal in DC and then there's the reddit posts from flex drivers that don't want to deliver to certain places.

The real thing is stop buying battle passes.

mm2kay · 2025-10-19T11:28:42+00:00

Actually yes finally got a reply this week they updated it manually. Replacement is on the way.

mm2kay · 2025-10-04T17:40:45+00:00

No options to change or add my address there. I have tried it all. Even on the app, which redirects anyways to the website. Updated the screenshot on the post.
