I'm not an expert on crowd size estimation, but that has got to be 500 people, maybe 1000.

Kid1 made a sign saying "I eat ICE for breakfast" and kid2 went with this idea.

Reports are that the crowd continued to grow over the course of the event to several thousand people. Nice job showing up, ROC!

I still feel compelled to share this:

It's too fun not to share! Enjoy!

I'd say *well* over 1,000. Maybe closer to 2.

I'm no expert either but at peak had to be a few thousand there. Great shot either way!

That field filled a lot more by the time people headed out to march!

Ado of note: the drone was out early in the protest, before both the numbers and the wind picked up.

The local paper gave a crowd estimate of 3,000-4,000 in this ordinarily pretty toned-down city of 200,000. That puts us pretty close to 2%.

Yes it did! It was great!
