Default Can I still get "Bad day for JFK ground Controller"?

The worst scenario at JFK was always the 7:30 Sunday "Whale Walk"
where we would get buried in 747's going across the pond and some
Hodgie airline would make a locked-wheel turn after missing a taxiway
and cause a pavement failure.

Late one August night we were trying to depart on our last leg,
weather was 0/0, rvr was 1200, and 600, midfield rvr was inop
and we were to follow a Pakastany 74 from the IAB to 31L
who lost his way around 22R. I'm sorry I lost sight of the initial
aircraft and continued to the departure runway I told the controller.


Hey, good story.

Does it have a point?
