What strikes me is Christie landing on the chopper, and then be driven 100 yards to the park.

Couldn't he have walked some of it? You all've seen him. It would do him some good. He's like those assholes at Wal-Mart or shopping malls who must park in the first few rows of spaces (ignoring usually the rest of spacious lot). If they don't, they then "shark" around the lot until a space opens up.
