Key Arena is full.

There are people waiting outside.

I love my city and I'm looking forward to caucusing for that man tomorrow.

We actually went down to the Key, and got about 30 feet from the doors before they closed them, saying the space was full...a friend who was already inside was texting us and telling us it was insane in there. How cool is that?

Are you caucusing at SCCC tomorrow?

I am!

I was also waiting outside!

It was awesome that he came out and spoke with those of us who couldn't get in.

I made it in...

Good times.

I liked the water bottle thing. Felt genuine. At one point Barry non-chalantly walked over to the corner of the stage, picked up a water bottle, walked back to the middle of the stage and tossed it out into the crowd. A minute later he stops talking and addresses a woman in the crowd, something to the tune of "Ma'am, maybe you should just sit down. Yeah. Actually, can we clear a path over to one of the chairs on the side? And can we get some EMTs over here?" Then he picked up where he left off in his speech. That whole thing just gave me the warm fuzzies, that the guy was able to spot what was going on with this one lady in the middle of a crowd of tens of thousands. Bravo, Barry. Bravo.

Yeah. I watched what of it I could on the King 5 feed. I like him so very much. So cool.
