Kicked down to Free State Bewing for a late lunch, wife had a meeting up on campus. Sat at the bar next to a couple from South Dakota and struck up a little conversation. She asked me how many people we should expect to see at the stadium, and I looked her straight in the eye and said "55,000". Her eyes bugged out and she just about rolled off her stool.
Yeah, I may have exaggerated a touch, but it'll be full. She thought it was nuts in Lawrence on a football gameday, and asked me what it was like on a basketball gameday, and I told her to add an order of magnitude.
