I lived in Kansas while AF. You have farmers that grow big corn there which are meant for livestock. Grab a big ear of corn from a farm there and bite into it. It's sweet and just big right off the stalk.

We should be eating those first. Not making corn booze. The animals can eat the small ones we don't eat.

BUMP

The total headcount needs to be distributed widely and repeated as often as possible.

Thanks everyone, we are now up to 44 states plus D.C., 442 cities, and between 580,000 and 658,000 patriots. We need some input from FReepers in North and South Dakota, Wyoming, Hawaii, Vermont and Montana.

You can check to see if your tea party is listed HERE if not, post a comment on this thread citing the city, state and headcount.

The Carson City NV newspaper called it both “thousands” and “an estimated 1500”.

I’d have put it at 2-4000 over the day, more if you count 2-1/2 hours of supportive honking and waving drive-thru “participants.”

St. George, Utah—2500

Well, don't you think we should we should be eating the biggest ears of corn possible first? It's a fruit. The scrawny ones sold in CA supermarkets are what livestock should eat.

I went to a coastal farm in Ventura and gave the farm manager $10 for a cardboard box. I filled it with the tallest asparagus I can pick. The tallest was 2 feet. Mmm. Those farms are measured in sq miles.

I don’t know were to get the figures, but there were parties in Beckley, WV, Charles Town, WV, Wheeling, WV, Parkersburg, WV, and Martinsburg, WV. Somebody help. I know those towns had parties.

I was at the Frederick rally. It looked like there were several hundred people, but it could have gone as high as a thousand. We had a lot of people, in spite of the heavy rain.
