Obama in Jacksonville

The crowd is expected to top atleast 10,000 people, rough estimates so far that is. I'll try and get a bunch of pictures, etc.

Wow.

So my expectations, as well as the City's were highly underestimated. The initial crowd that was inside Met park (It's a concert area in Jacksonville, right across the street from the Football stadium) was estimated at 21,000 people. JSO (Jacksonville Sherriffs Office) estimated that 8-9000 people were told that the complex was full about an hour before the event started, it was simply amazing to see this high a volume of Obama supporters in North East Florida, only knowing about the rally for about 5 days or so.

I will have a couple of pictures here during this following week. The speech itself was spectacular. The weather cooperated for most of the event, it just got slightly hotter towards the end of the event. I am so glad that I went to go see Obama in person, I feel like I had witnessed somebody great, it's weird but seeing Obama in person almost changes your life. I took a few friends and went with some family, and all were pleastently suprised of how well organized this event was, and the sheer volume of people that actually showed up. It really was something I would recommend doing if you ever get the chance to do so.
