Breaking News - Arguments Have Broken Out At CAP Euro

[Jeremy]

This just in from London, an argument has broken out in the lobby of the hotel between CAP, GPWA, & security. The details are still sketchy but apparently the show organizers instructed security to remove GPWA staff from the hotel (not the show) by any means necessary. Apparently Steven Corfman took the brunt of it and was aggressively escorted out of the hotel in front of everybody by security in the lobby while being screamed at by CAP staff.

I also understand that there are now several police at the hotel as well. If anyone is there, please update this thread.

I guess I am not surprised that this has happened, and one reason I avoided the show personally. It is a disgrace to our industry that this has transpired, and quite frankly I am disgusted.

Do not take any of this as fact, it's all third party information.....I'm sure the story will come out further in this thread.

If anyone is there, please use your cell phone cams. This is ridiculous and very dissapointing, but if CAP was looking for less bad publicity, they just blew it.

[MJ]

Not the type of PR we need - things have been looking up for our industry on the legal front.

Remember, CAP puts the affiliate's interest first.

WOW... I cant believe how ridiculous this is getting. I don't have the words to say how pissed off I would be if I was Steven.
I'm hopping APCW got it on camera that would be so amazing!!

I was unfortunetlly in my room when this happened. I came down to the lobby and it was a massive panic. People were yelling and the Professor was screaming at J Todd to 'step outside and fight him' in front of us all. I am not going back into the show.

Wow. I can see CAP not permitting GPWA staff into their conference/show. But what right do they have to boot people from the hotel property? Are they going to contact the Queen and demand all GPWA staff be removed from England????

I thought the professor was sick...

The British have deported many people in their history. You never know... Haha!

I thought the professor was sick...

Oh you just wait... After this, they'll be posting about Lou's near death experience, and his journey to the afterlife and back, and his conversation with Jesus and how he forgave him for the cardspike fiasco and how the rest of the world now have the answer to the question "what would jesus do" and now we can all put this behind and move on and there will be much rejoicing!
