(UPDATES) Lowdown: United Airlines Cancelation Claims Kyle Kinane

UPDATE, 2:56 p.m.: Kyle Kinane is continuing to rage against United Airlines via Twitter. In the meantime, LoCO was contacted by ACV fans who were a bit peeved at the airport being the target of Chris Durant’s potty mouth-enhanced rant. As we noted below, LoCO was unable to find a flight cancelation at ACV today, a fact confirmed by United’s website

We asked Durant for clarification, and he admitted he was not sure whether the flight canceled was one coming into Humboldt or was a different leg of Kinane’s journey. OK. But what about the reference to our “shitty little airport”?

“And when I say it’s shitty, it’s because it’s so small and there’s only a couple flights. If they were bigger there’d be more flights and more options to get him up here. That’s what I meant,” Durant told LoCO online.

UPDATE, 1:19 p.m.: Savage Henry's Chris Durant just contacted LoCO to let us know that Kyle Kinane can't make it to Humboldt tonight after United Airlines canceled his flight. Durant sent us the following "official statement":

"We here at Savage Henry regret to inform you that the Kyle Kinane show is cancelled tonight due to Humboldt county's shitty little airport and United fucking airlines being a dick bag. Kyle will make it up to Humboldt later in the year and feels really bad about this as well. Sorry." -Chris Durant

Nuts. LoCO has been unable to identify which flight exactly was canceled, but, yeah, Kyle ain't coming. You'll have to settle for this tweet in the meantime, Humboldt:

Arcata California tomorrow night. Do they call it St. Pot-ricks Day in Humboldt County? Don't answer--I don't care.

Original Post: Blessings upon the Humboldt bars that aren’t shrinking away from their responsibility to provide you a festive space to get wasted on St. Patrick’s Day despite its weak Tuesday placement year. Scroll your Lowdown listings below to find a solid green scene. 

Then of course there’s Kyle Kinane, a high-profile standup comedian that has little to do with St. Paddy’s day other than the fact that he looks like your leprechaun uncle. LoCO was told by Savage Henry this morning that a few tickets remain at Wildberries for the show at HumBrews tonight, but act fast. If you need an appetizer before tonight’s main course, check out Kinane on Kimmel in the clip below.
