Looked pretty tore up last night on the news.

Issue with 13/31 seems to revolve around a drainage crown (or whatever it’s called) and it creating a slight bump. Of note was that both AA and UA were fine with it when it was completed. Guess minds were changed.

I wouldn’t be thrilled having to be bumped to STL or MCI (even SGF), but not much AA can do with it at the moment.
