The only thing I could think of is that he was working Stardom Bound or something.

There was an article about Hockeythehayman in that Ward says that SB came up to him and he took off, I thought Stardom Bound was being shipped back west but who knows.

I think he wanted to wait and see if he got used in the Pick 3 on http://Pick3king.blogspot.com before he made the trip. If the author of that blog didn't like his chances he wouldn't have boarded the flight.
