Is not Keegan from Alaska? I hope that an earthquake, which happened there this morning, is not going to affect his coming to GPF.
He lives and trains in Alaska. I checked his twitter feed and he and his family are fine.
Bad juju.

The road from where he lives to the airport is fine for the most part. He posted on instagram that he didn't have practice today.

Maybe not plummet, it's late in the day, but yes, they are already being resold cheaper so Canadian fans may pick up some bargains. However I know that many Yuzuru fans also follow other skaters - we love Jun, many cheer for Shoma, Nathan or both - so although the audience may be thinner (how many spend a fortune travelling across the world?) many will still turn up to cheer the others on and maybe put up a banner or two for Yuzu's birthday.
On the other hand, the battle royal for worlds tickets....

There has already been a lottery for worlds. They have announced it for Japanese residents but I believe they announce overseas winners on the 4th.
And yeah I'm still going to GPF. I have a 2nd row seat, my flight is already paid for (that's already $600 for those two alone), and I plan to meet up with an old friend that lives there. Will really miss Yuzu of course, but I'll be cheering on the rest and I'm looking forward to seeing Satoko and Rika on the ladies side.
Nathan Chen
Shoma Uno
Michal Brezina
Sergei Voronov
Junhwan Cha
Keegan Messing (first alternate; called up)
In the ladies final only two countries are represented and in the mens final it's six. At Worlds 2015 the 10 best men in the SP were all from different countries.
