    140,000 seems unrealistic; that would make it one of the biggest JW conventions ever. Only a couple of the Yankee Stadium conventions from the 50s and 60s ever exceeded that number, I believe. Even the 1969 Yankee Stadium convention where I was baptized maxed out at only about 120,000.

    In other news, I live in NJ about 45 minutes from the Meadowlands, and my daughter came down last weekend from Massachusetts for a visit. She had a great amount of difficulty in locating an affordable hotel room. Now I know why.

    Sunday had 58,787 in attendence at MET Life but perhaps the 140,000 was including those who were tied in from other locations for some portions of the talks?

    I live in NJ too, about an hour south of the Meadowlands.

    Perhaps they were meaning to say that 144,000 were invisibly present.

    I had to watch Chuck M. Franke's video with the sound muted because, to be quite Franke, that song always makes me upChuck.
