AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — An invitation-only party in Austin called the “Cyber Rodeo at Giga Texas” at Tesla’s new billion-dollar-plus “Gigafactory” was the biggest secret and the toughest ticket in town. As many as 15,000 people were expected to attend the private event hosted by Tesla mogul Elon Musk on Thursday.
