Right. You only need to cite basically every single non-Stampede attempt at bringing in a national act and putting it in one of our sports venues. Throughout the years, this kind of stuff just flops in MHK. (Hysteria tour Def Lep and Garth Brooks notwithstanding).

Does the Stampede headliner draw 40,000? Seems like a lot of people at Tuttle.

Right, but does that equate to 40,000 being at the main stage at any one time? I'm asking, never been there.

I'm not good at estimating crowds but here is a decent pic of a full-ish crowd.

When I went, which was the fist 2 years it existed, there was only 1 stage.  There may be more now but I think there is only 1 main stage and they roll the acts through all day long.  It is come an go as you please you just claim your spot early if you want to sit close and bring your own chair.  I would say when I went (96, 97) there was 35,000 there during the headliner acts.  It looks like the headliners now are bringing 55,000 or so.

I'm not sure if this is actually being debated or not, but if it was garth brooks instead of zbb then yes, they absolutely without a doubt would have sold 40k tickets. that's a no brainer.

favorite attendee? front row sleeveless taz shirt and huge bearded air puncher are obvious choices but you have to go deeper imo. sleeveless black shirt beast man fist pumping his hat is good, all the older lady reaction shots are good, super hiked up shorts with tube socks and white wife beater mustache guy is great.

to be fair, ZBB isn't really country either, pretty sure PhilPhil is like in the same category as a Dave Matthews, maybe?

They are so much more than that.  Giant mustache, fist raised, sunglasses on camo hay yelling "whooo".

Also, nothing says "largest country festival in the country" like lined up, cheap, plastic, white chairs.  Also, how the hell are they still lined up so neatly?

Then you have yellow short sleeve polo, with sleeves that go well past his elbows, tucked into short green cargo shorts with braided belt, and Marti Gras beads.

Also, lady next to taz shirt, what are you holding?  Whats it with guys in red fist pumping their right hand while yelling whooo?  Red tank top 2 rows behind taz is doing it to?
