UK knew this all along. They shouldn’t have submitted a bid to host if they couldn’t  house all the players, fans, and families in the immediate vicinity. Did they deceive the selection committee? Or did the committee know all this, and picked them anyway?

All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.

The requirements state that they "must have the facilities to host". Not that they have to plan around a country music festival.  Facilities means the stadium, not hotel availablity week of.

That doesn't mean that UK and Lexington don't suck ass.  They do.
