I don't doubt it being the biggest crowd ever,I go every year and I could tell there were more people.

I was out there today,and as always it was a breathe taking show!And yes...I got burnt too.I didn't beat the traffic though,it took almost 2 hours to get out there and I live 20 minutes away.

Lol, we got out there around 8:30 and we were still backed up on the bridge and had to park in the WINGS parking lot...craziness out there this year!
