At DFW. @Avis quoting 2 hour wait times for cars *to people who already have reservations.* There are over 10 kiosks but only 3 staffed. They must be knowingly overbooking!

If @Jomboy_ really wanted to prove that Mookie hits better against a pitcher the 3rd time (or that Snell pitches better 3rd time), he should use the same table, but restrict all the rows to games in which he faced a starting pitcher 3 times (I will after this midterm lol)
