Trump to hold 'BIG rally' in Pennsylvania (Same night as White House Correspondent's Dinner)
The Philly Voice ^ | April 22, 2017 | Daniel Craig

President Donald Trump plans to hold a "BIG rally" in Pennsylvania next weekend — although the exact time, place and reason for the event are not known.

Trump, tweeted from his personal account Saturday afternoon that the rally would be held Saturday, April 29, without immediately providing further details.

As Politico notes, the rally will mark Trump's 100th day in office. The event also falls on the same night as the White House Correspondent's Dinner, which Trump has decided to skip, breaking years of precedent.

The president spent much time campaigning in Pennsylvania, and taking the state proved a key victory in defeating Democratic challenger Hillary Clinton in the Electoral College.

Amidst protests held to show opposition against him after his win, Trump has held several post-election rallies in the "battleground" states that helped take the 2016 election, such as Ohio and Florida.

Saturday's event won't be Trump's first post-election rally in the Keystone State, as the president came to Hersey in December as part of his "thank you tour."

This is a developing story and will be updated once more information becomes available.

The New Holland Arena at the farmshow complex is not that big relative to the Giant Arena in Hershey where his other 2 rallies were held. The floor of the New Holland Arena is also dirt/mud, for all kinds of farming/rodeo type events. Not sure if it ever has been covered over to stand on. Overall, however, the farmshow complex is HUUUGE.

Per wiki...New Holland Arena, 28,000 square feet (2,600 m2) at floor, 7318 seats, completed in 1939 (originally named Large Arena until 2016) versus 10,500 seats in the Giant Center (with the standing room on the floor the size of a hockey rink). Got tix already!

The "Trump-inspired" rioting at the rally, of course!
