I did not see that many people there when I picked up 4 tickets around 9:30 a.m. Friday September 19, 2008.
There were a good number but no where near the crowds I had expected.
We will see tomorrow though. I doubt if they will have the 20,000 they made tickets. This 20,000 tickets made is according to the Villages Daily Sun articles of today.

We have a friend who is active in the Republican party in the Winter Haven area. She could have had as many tickets as she wanted. She got 10 and is driving up with 4 others. In the article in the Daily Sun, it appears the Rep. party here had 20,000 tickets. Who knows how many there actually are. If people are coming from all over, this could be a disaster as far as seeing anything goes etc.
Regardless of who the rally is for you would think, considering just the 20K printed here, that it should have been held somewhere like the polo field.
Good luck to all who plan on attending. I'll be in my less than crowded house tuning into the Directv NFL package.
Attempting to get all these folks into Sumter landing could be a disaster.
