My nearest airport recently announced a direct flight to Vienna. Next thing I got all excited when I saw on the World Snooker site that they'd be bringing a ranking event to Austria. I'd always wanted to go to Vienna, and snooker would give me the perfect excuse.

Your nearest airport is Heathrow.
It's a 2-hour train from Zurich, which was how I did it. There is another local airport near Bregenz. But yes, you'd think a tournament in Austria should be closer to the people. Dornbirn is extremely small. Perhaps they were trying to attract people from Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Liechtenstein.

There's just something about Wilson that makes him very unlikable something else besides the haircut.

Well they can hardly go home now. Match 5-5 and they've been waiting for a tournament for years. They are pretty much forced to stay there until 2am or however long it takes...

I wasn't aware the Swiss were a race. I think the term you were looking for was xenophobia.
