I would be crowne plaza overspray. Anything from the Arena that was airborne should've been dry and very diluted by the time it goes that far.

They thought the Belevedere would be dry, or was that diluted by then also.  |

Sounds like it could of been windblown sand, if it is paint it could be primer from workmen working on something high up. That paint dust can travel a long ways, perhaps a water tower or bill board being re-painted.

Seems pretty likely to be from the Crowne Plaza, since they having been painting red AND BROWN on the outside of it...

Pretty stupid considering that Crowne Plaza was the host hotel.
Someone is going to take a huge hit on this.

It'll be tuff to collect for damages. Everyone will pass the blame. Even a court ruling in your favor you'll still have to collect the damages somehow. I'd just let it go it's not worth the hassle. Chalk it up to bad judgement and move on.

Are you serious??? There is thousands upon thousands of dollars in damages. The residue CAN and I'm sure WILL be analyzed and the culprit will be identified.
When you've got a $100,000 car, it's worth the hassle. I'd be p*ssed if it was my car and I know I'd pursue it.
Get real. Ain't nobody gonna let this one go and "move on".

Especially someone with an original paint car. Completely original with original paint in good condition can double the value of a desireable or collectible car. If it has to be re-finished, someone will lose a huge chunk of value in their pristine GTO Judge.

When I read about this damage in the paper, it nearly made me sick to my stomach. If I were an owner of one of the damaged cars, I would be so p*ssed off that my vision would be blurred. I understand some of the vehicles also had interior damage because the windows were down for judging. A horrible, horrible shame. I did see a spokesman from the Crowne Plaza hotel on TV news last night and he said that if painting activities at the hotel are found to be responsible for the damage, they would "make it right." |

There's more to this story, this general contractor, and crown plaza. It has something to do with a months long ongoing labor dispute. More information to follow...

We had something simulur happen in the mid-1990's. A company about 1/8 of a mile away was painting the water towers, & that spray got on peoples cars who worked at nearby factories. They tryed to collect for paint damage but failed. it got my vehicle to, but I drove an old 1981 Ford truck and cleaned it myself I scrubed out the little yellow paint dots myself and then waxed it. Yes, I'd be ticked off too if I had a brand new truck. In the end most of the people with damaged/paint dots on their cars took care of it themselfs and had it detailed and cleaned on their own dime at local car detailing joints..[B)]

I think this might be a "If we ever want them or any other car show back in Tulsa" scenarios though |
