Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
At Denver International Airport yesterday, Southwest went the extra mile of flair by festively decorating concourse C with Halloween-themed stuff -- stuff like the three gravestones above, which sported humorous epitaphs. Most of them were pretty goofy, but a closer inspection revealed that at least one was a clever dig on competitor United Airlines that, if it didn't cross the line into weirdly inappropriate considering the context, it certainly toed it. The good: In your face, United! The not-so-good: "Flew" is spelled wrong.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
