Related: About this forumLTE: ERCOT wants Texas homeowners to conserve energy, while Globe Life Field cranks the AC
Energy use at Globe Life FieldERCOT has some nerve to ask us to conserve electricity when users such as Globe Life Field take more power than hundreds of homes here in Arlington. (July 12, 1A, ERCOT asks Texans to conserve energy during high demand) I would be willing to bet not even 20,000 people showed up for Mondays game. Raising the facilitys temperature from 72 to 75?(July 13, 1B, Smith, Rangers hold off late As rally for win) Big deal. Most of us homeowners do not keep ours even at 75 during the day because of the cost. I am so disgusted with ERCOT.

All the lights are off. No washing or drying during the day.
We are tryin but I know there are many that really dont give a shit or get breaks from the repukes.
So in essence, we who care are keeping the fucking lights on for those that dont.
The song remains the same
