DU HELP: Obama event in Dayton,OH- Any Sugg on how to get In?
I am a 19 year old student attending a community college. I just found out about the Obama even in Dayton,Ohio at Fifth-Third field which is a baseball stadium. I went there in 2004 and saw John Kerry which drawed 10,000 people. Now I just found out that Obama is coming there and there are no actual tickets its a first come first serve basis. I am afraid that people will be lining up extremely early for the event (Event starts at 11am doors open at 9) and I live 2 hours away.

I was wondering if I should contact someone at Obama headquarters and volunteer to help set up for the event or how I would go about volunteering to be able to get in this event.

I am really worried that I will not get there in time or will be in the nosebleed section-this will probably be one of the greatest moments of my life.

Any Suggestion are gratefully welcomed!!!

No joke. The crowds will be huge, so you'll want to be as close as possible to the front of the line. I'm talking getting there at 6am.

The reward if you get there early enough is you very well might get lucky enough to shake Obama's hand or even get your book signed!
