Yep. That’s EXACTLY what happened. I made a point of watching from the 29th floor of my building how many people left the stadium and went to the rally. Nearly everyone, and I mean everyone, got in their cars and headed home. I watched them do it. I was surprised how little of the people leaving the stadium actually joined the rally since they were right there. LOL.
Gosh, you're bringing back some memories. I spent my first 42 years in the Cleveland area. Grew up in Parma, had season tickets to the Browns in the 1980's when Brian Sipe was Quarterback. I went to the first 3 Cleveland 500 races at Burke Lakefront Airport. Many great times there.
