This article claims the RNC is expecting 50,000 out of town guests.

17,000 rooms though should be more than enough!

sportchampps;1791015 wrote:It doesn't matter how many rooms there are in a 45 minute radius. I can pretty much guarantee anyone going to the RNC isn't staying at a Budget Hotel or in a part of town they don't feel safe. The number of rooms that matter are 4-5 star hotels rooms in the area. If their counting a Red Roof Inn or Holiday Inn the 17,000 rooms is an inflated stat.

3.1 guests per hotel room. Ever traveled for work with colleagues? Did you put 3.1 people in one room?

The 2016 Republican National Convention requires approximately 16,000 hotel rooms to accommodate the estimated 50,000 visitors who will convene in Cleveland

Zwick was amazed (dumbest thing he's ever heard), had a really fucking hard time understanding it.

Got slapped around.

Implied that 3.1 people will fill all 16k hotel rooms in Cleveland.

Probably realized that was dumb.

Concedes that people will pay for better accommodations 45 min away, because why the fuck not?


Did I miss anything?
