I think it would be a shame if we only got 1/3 of 60,000 people to show up. We are MICHIGAN and to think people won't come out and enjoy everything thats going on is a SHAME.

10-20K. They already said its not going to be a "game". They already said they're not going to show off the entire playbook. Its the day before Easter.

AFAIK the U hasn't done the best job marketing this shin-dig beyond the Ann Arbor/campus scene. If you want to get people to show up, you have to do a better job of outreach. Ads in the radio, magazines, newspapers, local tv and all that jazz. Then again, I rarely read newspapers, magazines, watch TV or listen to the radio so maybe there are ads and I just ain't seen 'em I'm guesstimating (based not even on flimsy evidence -- yea, a complete lack thereof!) ~20,000

I bet there are maybe 35k people "intending to go." Once Saturday morning rolls around, half of them will wake up with nasty hangovers or general weekend morning apathy. I say 20,000 show up, if the weather cooperates.
