Pipe fitters, electricians, longshoremen, teamsters, service workers, etc.

Security is not a hard profession.

are only 300 attendees for 3 days. It sound like the original deal was for an in-person, 10 day event. 300 people isn’t even a big high-school graduation.

allow the barbarian hordes to descend and rape and pillage.

either that or they are not willing to expose themselves to the hoax.

downside is once the cultists hear of this they will be trying to stir up sh*t.
