2011 Laredo's Official Visitors Guide still includes the Laredo Broncos- DOH!

Laredos Visitors Guide

I'm going out on a limb and assume that proofreading is not a big priority at the city of Laredo's Convention and Visitor's Bureau. Last week, Laredotejas pointed out that the mayor's welcome letter, which opens this year's Official Visitor's Guide, had at least a few glitches. Well, never fear, our second close look at the visitor's guide turns out yet another apparent oversight. You have to admit that at least they're consistent.

In promoting the city's 4th of July activities, the guide highlights the fireworks display that takes place every year at veteran's field. The problem in this particular write-up is that it includes the following sentence. "The display will follow the Laredo Bronco's baseball home game".  Don't look now, but Laredo doesn't have the Broncos anymore. You might remember that they were run out of town by our unscrupulous and back-stabbing back-slapping city council. Also, something tells me that since the Broncos aren't at veterans field anymore, the ice-cream and pie-eating contests will be probably be missing as well.

We can't continue to mislead the few visitors this town gets with a visitor's guide full of erroneous information. Does anyone at the LCVB have enought white-out to go out and correct the 200,000 copies of the visitor's guide that are there mis-informing everyone?
