Look at the crowd! 80,000 people was the recorded attendance. We were just behind the TV closer to the stage, right behind the green traffic light. We didn't feel that close at the time, but we sure could have been lots further away! Photo credit MTV's video footage screen shot.

Showing you the heaters. We bundled up for the game because it was 45F degrees outside, only to arrive and get blasted by these heaters. We had to peel off a couple layers. I can't imagine what it costs to run these.
