Irrelevant. There's a big event in town that will be attended by rich people who don't want to stay in a hotel with a bunch of poor people. $1,200/night is pocket change; you'd learn this if you had money.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1790938 wrote:because its ohio....

I get this.. We also pay $9000 for a week for a house at Hilton Head on the ocean.. but its Hilton Head.. and on the Ocean... not fucking Cleveland Ohio.Automatik;1790945 wrote:People pay $100 to park in front yards for big OSU home games.

Are you familiar with the RNC? It's importance? It goes on every 4 years.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1790949 wrote:I get this.. We also pay $9000 for a week for a house at Hilton Head on the ocean.. but its Hilton Head.. and on the Ocean... not fucking Cleveland Ohio.

Yes, I love the ocean.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1790956 wrote:Are you familiar with the ocean and places people actually want to be?
Our entire family. It's not just us for $9000. I'd also guess that's pretty modest to average for on the ocean?OSH;1790960 wrote:This is crazy to me...
I could take a week's trip, and then some, internationally for a lot less than that. Even if it's multiple families involved...not worth it.
No question it brings people. But you'd have to be pretty passionate about politics to spend that money on staying 45 minutes off site for a fucking convention. Is anyone on here doing it? I highly doubt it.Automatik;1790961 wrote:Yes, I love the ocean.
Let me help you. It's a very significant event. Again, only every 4 years.

The RNC isn't a bunch of guys typing on a sport message board, so no.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1790963 wrote:No question it brings people.

It's literally the biggest(or 2nd biggest, depending on your views) event in politics. It's not a small get together of people. It's a HUGE event. So yes, people will pay thousands of dollars to stay at a nice house that is less than an hour from the site.
So simple, an Akron grad should get it. Every hotel room in the Cleveland area, booked at double occupancy, will only accommodate about 2/3 of the people attending. The rest need to stay somewhere, driving record demand and record prices.like_that;1790955 wrote:It doesn't get any more fitting that a Bernie supporter doesn't understand basic supply/demand.
not true at all. The website I read said Cleveland area has 17,000 hotel rooms. RNC asked for 15,000. They estimate they'll need 16,000 total.queencitybuckeye;1790968 wrote:So simple, an Akron grad should get it.

The 2016 Republican National Convention requires approximately 16,000 hotel rooms to accommodate the estimated 50,000 visitors who will convene in Cleveland for a week next July. According to the convention host committee, Northeast Ohio will have 17,000 rooms available within a 45-minute drive of downtown and just under 5,000 rooms in the immediate downtown area by the mega-event's first day.

I'm considering going to a music festival in Detroit in May. Air BnB prices for that weekend are also higher than the norm.
