As a Cincinnati Reds fan, I received an interesting e-mail today. On September 30th at the home of the Reds, Great American Ballpark, there will be a simulated terror drill. Here's the press release,

Now, I am all for helping our country prepare for such an exercise. Better to practice than to just wing it when it happens. But obviously, coming barely one month before the election, the timing is very suspect.
I don't have time to do the research now, so I'm throwing it out to the Kos community, since someone may be following these things who can answer some questions I have.
First of all, in the five years since 9/11 (and well before this election cycle) have we been holding similar drills around the country?
Are there other simulations around the country planned for this period?
If you live in Cincinnati (which I don't) will you go to get your two free tickets for next season?
I know I had some other questions, but I've got to get back to work. Thanks for your input.
