According to info on that Building, it will hold something like 12,000 for a sporting event. With the floor available to crowd the people in, it could hold more. But I read, on their own convention website, they invited 50,000 to attend. Maybe they figured they could sit outside in the rain. Who the hell knows. Who the hell cares. I do know that the Dem Convention will be fine and they will at least talk about the future, not spend all their time trying to prove that Obama has a heart. 3 days and the Republicans still didn't convince many people that Romney does and other than Christie spending his time talking about Christie, thats all we heard about Romney.
