Back when my wife & I lived in Austin, I had an errand in which I was supposed to go pick up a couple (mutual friends who were moving there) from the airport. I went at the duly appointed time to pick them up, no sign of them. Went up and down the terminal, no sign of them. Meanwhile my wife was receiving increasingly frantic calls from them, wondering where we were. I called the airport police to see if anyone had encountered trouble, but they hadn’t heard anything. Turns out they got off in HOW-ston, thinking they’d already reached OW-stin. Then they got grifted while they waited for us to make the 2.5+ hour drive to HOW-ston.
Then there’s Ontario…
