I was there, man, they can say or make all the fun they want about the size of the crowd, I thought it was a powerful moment in time for Blazer Nation.
Was a good crowd for being assembled in 3 hours. Very passionate crowd too.
I got there at 6:50, had to park all the way down by the Alys Stephens Center, and heard you the minute I stepped out of the car.
How many people would you guys estimate were there?

It looks like a good crowd IMO

if you dont have a sense of it already, the comments section of the story on al.com gives us outlanders an idea of exactly how much of an uphill climb this is.

I suck at crowd estimates but I'd say maybe a thousand. Not bad for a couple hours notice on a Sunday afternoon.

That's what I was thinking from the pictures. On a short notice that is very commendable. I wish I could be there. Make the crowd tomorrow three times as big!
