More than 100,000 people are expected to attend an event in a cricket stadium honoring President Trump's visit to India hosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi later this month.

Yahoo Sports reported Wednesday that the stadium, which is expected to seat 110,000 when completed, is still under construction but is set to be completed and filled to the rafters for Trump's Feb. 24 visit to the country.

Trump is set to visit India for two days, where he will attend a speech by Modi called "How Are You Trump" at the massive Sardar Patel Stadium. The stadium, once completed, will overtake Australia's Melbourne Cricket Ground as the biggest cricket stadium in the world.

The president met with Modi late last year in Houston, and attended a "Hello, Modi" event in the city that drew crowds of about 50,000 people, according to media reports.

Wow!! I hope he thinks twice about this. A stadium with 100k is a security nightmare especially in a foreign country. Quite frankly we can’t lose him.

I understand the security concerns but can you imagine how liberals and the media will go insane when 100,000 Indians are cheering for President Trump?

Trump is a 'racist'. 'People of color' don't like Trump. How will they explain the adulation?

The only security angle is not to attend. IMHO. I’m sure he’s getting an earful from SS.

When he was at that event in Houston with primarily an Indian audience, they were wild about him. You’re right; it WILL be epic.

I just hope that Trump does not come back all screwed-up like the Beatles did.

Thankfully he's not in the heavy drug phase of his career.

I’d surround and blanket Pakistan with air, water, and ground forces... If there was to be any sort of attack, that is where it will originate from...
