25,000 to 35,000 Attend Dallas, TX July 4 Tea Party
 [The Dallas Morning News] An estimated crowd of 25,000 to 35,000 people attended the Independence Day tea party at Southfork Ranch on Saturday, one organizer said. While the official figures haven't been tallied yet, Debbie Meyers said the bulk of the crowd arrived after 7:30 p.m. to avoid the heat of the day. The temperature reached a high of 101 degrees, according to the National Weather Service. "I was standing on the stage and couldn't see the end of the people," said Meyers, president of the event-planning business Bravo Entertainment. The event had been billed as the largest tea party in the nation, and some organizers had said the crowd could reach 50,000. Posted by: Elmusonter Lumumba4302 2009-07-06 |
