I’m thinking that the Cruise Lines @ Jacksonville would cut a good deal to have some RNC conventioneers stay on their Boats which are now tied up at docks with all the cruises cancelled.
That’s thousands of additional “hotel rooms”!
An idea worth pursuing. Many folk fail to realize that trying to find a venue large enough with also enough hotel space to host the quadrennial RNC convention on such a short notice is no small task as most venues big enough are already contractually committed to other events. This venue that someone here brags that will seat 14,000 isn't really as big as the RNC was hoping and looking for, 20,000+ but will have to make do.
