Default Reasons Why Polgar Did not Stay for the Board Meeting in Tulsa

Subject: Show me the money

Frank K. Berry and Jim Berry made a generous offer to pay for a top of
the line $7,500 a night hotel suite, $100,000 in appearance fees, a
priceless chess set, 33% stock holdings in Stillwater National Bank, a
spanking new Mercedes S-class, and many more incredible perks.

All board members walked away from the meeting with a bag full of
cash, gold Rolex, and so much more. Tell that someone who is asking to
try running for the board himself. It is good to be a board member of
the very rich USCF. Shhhhhh, but you must not leak this out to the
general public. Otherwise, there would be nothing left for the rest of
us in the future.

Someone is asking the question: Since Polgar and Truong came to Tulsa
for three days during the US Championship but left Tulsa on Friday and
therefore did not attend the USCF Executive Board meeting on Saturday
and Sunday, did the USCF pay for their air transportation and hotel
expenses or did they come to Tulsa at their own expense?

Does anybody know the answer to this question?
