45 to 50,000? Huh? I live two miles from Southfork. There’s no way there were that many people there. 5000 maybe. I had to work, so I couldn’t go, but I drove by in the afternoon and later in the evening. But I’m sure the heat had a lot to do with the low attendance. Over 100 degrees and there’s not a lot of shade. They should do it again in April. Then I bet they’d get 50,000.
I’d say ther were 10,000. The line to get out was at least 5000 cars long.
