"We're setting up the arena in such a way that we can maximize the number of people," he said. "Our response to the event tomorrow night is overwhelming, and we want to make sure that we get as many people in the arena as we possibly can."

The Coliseum is set up for 13,500 people. It's first-come, first-served for seating and standing room only on the floor.

The Coliseum parking lot, which has a capacity of 2,750 people, will be open at 8 a.m. There will be overflow parking at the Old Broadwater Golf Course with shuttle service provided.

Doors to the Coliseum open at 4:30 p.m., and Trump will speak at 7 p.m.

Coliseum officials said the best advice for those wanting to come see the Trump rally: arrive early; have patience; and expect delays in both traffic and security process.

No contraband, no posters and no bags of any kind will be allowed.

They sure don’t look like establishment Repubs. Look more like the Tea Party riff raff who Repubs hate.

Ha!

[McGruff]

We areIN and three rows back right in front of his PODIUM!!

Woo Hoo!

[longtermmemmory]

this is not one or two special events like other past candidates, this phenomenon is repeated over and over.

One or two such crowds can be dismissed as a black swan. Consistency is a problem for establishment/donor dependent candidates.

I was hoping for a TV channel but don’t see any with it scheduled. But sometimes it
isn’t listed. I was hoping one of the three CSPAN channels would be carrying it. I’m
going to scan the tv after 8 pm maybe find something. If I do I’ll post the channel name.

I love escargot! The last time I had them, they escar-went and were escar-gone in minutes. Dipping that crusty French bread in the garlic-and-oil mixture captures the best part.

[Jane Long]

Exactly!! These fine folks look nothing like those GOPe debate plants that Rinse and Jeb pay, er, place in the audience :)

I think Josh was having a hard time getting past the appearance. It was pretty funny.

It is a thing of beauty TenMountainMan. And MinuteGal, you're so right. They look like great U. S. Citizens to me, clean cut, well dressed, happy, the people you'd want for neighbors for sure. Amntn, thanks for the Trump bump.

Here we go...

[Jane Long]

Thank you so much!

Oh, come on! Trump should just drop it already, for crying out loud! There is no way that someone that can fill a 13,500 stadium will ever get enough votes to win the presidency!

Let us know when he fills nursing homes of concerned voting citizen like Jeb Bush(!) does!

[MinuteGal]

You have a nasty mouth...and yours is the most descriptive handle on FR.
