UFC Fighter Tony Kelley chose to drive 21 hours from Louisiana to Las Vegas for his fight because he didn’t want to deal with the mask bullshit on commercial airplanes.
On the UFC weigh-in show, Lauro Sanko mentioned Tony Kelley drove from Louisiana to Las Vegas for tomorrow's card. Apparently he did not fly because he did not want to deal with wearing a mask. #UFC269

UFC Bantamweight Tony Kelley chose to take a 21+ hour road trip to Las Vegas from Louisiana because he didn’t want to wear a mask on a flight. 😮

Can’t blame this guy. I am doing similar types of things in this environment.
I may not ever fly again. The security harassment at airports is bad enough but the mask bullshit has just pushed everything over the top.
Plus, with everything going on, the chances of being on board an aircraft where someone goes crazy is getting increasingly higher.
I’d much rather drive to where I need to go than to deal with the insanity.
