17. It's first come, first serve.

It doesn't matter how many tickets the Trump campaign would have given away. They only do it to get contact information so they can send these people campaign materials. All you have to do is show up and it's first come, first serve. The truth is, people had other priorities rather than go to Trump's first rally in months. I guess they just aren't that into him, and it looks like the people who did show up were either paid, or bored as hell. I think it's great that people trolled Trump by vastly inflating the numbers, though. I'm loving what the K-Pop fans have been doing online in support of good causes lately.
