Thanks for posting these great photos, "AmericanMade." Sure warms the heart to see such huge crowds turning up for Dubya wherever he goes.

Welcome to FR -- and thanks for your post! Sounds like you all had a great time! It was a privilege to help with the rally in Jax. We were all so excited and had some great speakers, incl. Kim Alexis as well as locals. Great pep rally. My ears were ringing and my arms were aching from the bangers, lol, but we wanted W to know we appreciate him and Laura.

But :o( NO WATER was provided for us (and we were there at 8 am with him speaking at 4:30 pm!). Worse yet, concessions were at Jags game prices, YIKES!

Cyn, bummer about the water. in Melbourne there was plenty down on the field and they were passing it out constantly while those of us in the stands just kinda broiled. I was most upset at the concession stand when I noticed, "Hey, the ketchup and mustard are from Heinz!!!" I'm just observing, not complaining, and hopefully the Orange Bowl will take a lesson-learned from our experiences. All in all it was a very well-run event given the complexity and the crowd size. I'd go again in a heartbeat (and bring my own mustard!).
