It just makes for a better argument to have estimates by those who know how to estimate a crowd size. Tickets given out is another way to arrive at a number. Somebody knows approximately how many people showed up. And the photos just help document it if the angles are the same.

tRump will probably say it is the largest tree lighting ceremony in the history of the world. Who ya gonna buh-leave? ME or your lying eyes??
