Rumor has it he's going to make his concession speech at the Holiday Inn on Harrison St. in Chicago.

 
jonasborg [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 03:37:50 PM  
I heard he liked Katie and that she wasn't into black guys, but she'd give him a try if he asked.

 
robsul82 [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 03:38:41 PM  
That's silly, the concession speech will be booked between the weekly bingo game and bake sale at the Baptist church in Phoenix.

In other news, we've already DONE 75,000. Yawn. SO boring, so passe. Isn't there some 100K stadium we could book?

Obama might make his DNC acceptance speech at Invesco Field in front of over 75,000 people...

...whom he will transport to heaven on wings of glorious rhetoric powered by the energy political ecstasy...

It'd be more impressive if he made his DNC acceptance speech in front of over beside between beneath 75,000 people.

/He'd win in prepositions. McCain is still working on around.

 
Howie Spankowitz [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 03:48:55 PM  
McCain will make his in front of the Elks Lodge #27.

 
mofroe [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 03:51:04 PM  
Yeah, but like 70,000 of those people will be there for the band anyway

Invesco Field: aka "The Diaphragm"

Republicans would refer to this speech as a Vagina Monologue.

Haha, yes. And if we do book the 100K place, 95K will be there to see The String Cheese Incident.

Also under the mutual agreement that if the prior Little League Awards Banquet runs long, they'll have to move to the parking lot (must provide own folding chairs and tarp covering).

Invesco Field at Mile High

/never forget

 
McCainDemocrat 2008-07-03 04:11:33 PM  
Yeah, but you know who else held his speeches in front of large adoring crowds in stadiums?

But seriously, a huge chunk of Denver would have to be shut down at taxpayer expense to pull this off. And the actual Convention doesn't have enough money to really run one location, much less two.

 
JerseyTim [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 04:16:09 PM  
Invesco Field, eh? You know what would be kinda funny? If, during his speech, his lost his place and something as missing and the crowd yelled out, "IN-COM-PLETE!"

And then Barack says, "Boy, I'm getting a little nervous here...is anyone backstage who can help me out?"

AND THEN OUT COMES JOHN ELWAY!!!!!11

That'd be cool.

WRONG! Republicans are not allowed to refer to sex, sexy things, or sexy times in public. Jesus frowns on such shenanigans.

In front of literally dozens of people.

OMG! The Dems have a candidate that has brilliantly organized and inspired millions of people! How can we make that look bad? uumm...a cult! Yeah, it's a cult!!!

...pathetic

If only Denver were some form of large town which ever hosted large-scale events. DAMNIT. Why'd we have to pick Denver?!

I'm starting to write down names if people who insist Obama supporters are a cult, so I can go to Fark parties and punch them in the goddamn head.

 
CanisNoir [TotalFark] 2008-07-03 05:20:56 PM  
I wonder if this has anything to do with the DNC not having enough money to pull off a four day convention or if this is just part of thier "hopeful bounce".

/Brilliantly organized and inspired millions?!? Pffttt...
//Break, give me one please.

Only an elitist would have people show up to listen to him, and only a cultist would ever want to listen to somebody. QED.

Because we're used to the riots after Avs games. Since the Avs suck now, we haven't had a good riot in a while. Might as well import some Democrats so we can tear gas them.

 
EL_FABREZ 2008-07-03 05:24:55 PM  
Obama doesn't have that many supporters. There's only like 8 people on the internet with 1,200,000 alts.

Im a big Obama fan, but this is a silly blog.

FTFB We have so far gotten denials from the DNCC, The Mayor's Office, The Host Committee and the Obama Campaign. Of course they want this to be a big announcement that our humble blog wouldn't be able to approach.

The Invesco Field Special Events department is closed for the holiday weekend. If they were open I'm sure they would have told me that they're booked for August 28th.


So everyone has told him no, and the reservation office is closed so he cant ask them. So he presumes he is right?

Aw, come on, you know that they're all Godless hippies who have built up an immunity to tear gas from their constant sedition against the government.

You didn't make a you're/your mistake, did you? Not about the member of the fan club comment. That was accurate.

Well that's perfectly sane and reasonable.

 
BMulligan 2008-07-03 05:35:09 PM  
At this point, it's all rank speculation. But it would certainly be dramatic, and would undercut McCain's rumored VP announcement beautifully. I didn't realize that JFK gave his acceptance speech at the LA Coliseum - and I wonder why something like this hasn't been done in almost 50 years.

Nobody in the last 50 years could fill the space, maybe?
