Using the tried and true methods of crowd estimated used by Don Blankenship for his Destroy the Planet One Mountain At a Time Rally and the Teabaggers gathering of 60,000 2.2 million in Washington, D.C., I can safely say the Pickin' in the Panhandle bluegrass and barbecue festival drew 4.3 million. That's straight from ABC News.

UPDATE: Photographic proof!

and none of them were there to see no furrin, alien band ;-) (4.00 / 1)
BREAKING: only 2.15 million in attendance! (4.00 / 2)
Number for Pickin' in the Panhandle cut in half by organizers. Without Iphone service in Back Creek Valley, city slickers went mad, counting wasps and bees by mistake.

It just dawned on me. (4.00 / 2)
I never got around to estimating the size of the turnout at the UMWA's 71st annual Labor Day picnic at beautiful John C. Slack Memorial Park.

By my estimate there were at least half a million in Racine. But then I'm not no expert at estimating crowds.

The above photo was snapped just before Jimi Hendrix started playing there.

That's the ticket ;}
