They were only budgeting for 6K people on Friday and they got 12k.  I get that the previous 2 days were dead but it seems like they get caught off guard a lot when budgeting for holiday weekend traffic.

Thats true, BUT it is a short weekend with Sunday being Easter and closed..   I am sure they compared to last years numbers and expected forecast...\\

Good day though.. ;D

I bet it was a mad house Saturday.

Not really a madhouse.  The morning, as a matter of fact, was quite nice.  The crowds didn't start really building till after 11.  We left before 4, and people were still coming in, so I do not doubt things got really tight.

In addition to Mercy, there were still several choirs there (reminding me of my own choir trips there, oh! so many years ago).  As for behavior, the choir kids were angels compared to the Mercy adults.  They seem to believe that the city is their own personal property that day, and they cut in line, block traffic, push past, and otherwise dominate the area, even when the crowds are light (as was the case in the morning).  Mercy really needs to reflect on the image their people are giving of their institution.

Ok got ya.  I asked on the other thread how their behavior was and this answer is nicely.  It is quite sad adults act that way.

The rain really killed today's attendance
