Being originally from Cincinnati, I know the the pavilion where he is speaking. Speaking from that viewpoint, that crowd is tiny. The pavilion slopes up way up a hill behind where they placed the media. It appears that no one was behind the media, thus they are only utilizing less than a 1/4 of the available space. If they have 1,500 there, they are lucky.
Thanks for the info. The cameramen sure used strategic shots to make the crowd look bigger.
