#TheCallTurnoutFAIL exposed: Organizers planned for 30,000, not 6,000; Endless, empty blocks of JumboTrons, Porta-Potties unused

Andy Kelley, Courage’s New Media Organizer, was at TheCall yesterday (Saturday), and wrote this piece revealing how the event was actually a total failure in terms of turnout, compared to what the organizers expected. Lou Engle expected 30,000 people, it appears, if the multiple JumboTrons and Porta-Potties stretching on for blocks… of empty grass… are any indication. Not to mention the 55,450 unused water bottles, outnumbering actual attendees almost tenfold.

1. Somebody should take those water bottles down to the nearest homeless shelter.

n/t.

[TygrBright]

2. Or drop them at intervals in the southern Arizona desert. n/t

[Ken Burch]

3. Absolutely.

n/t.

4. I was just gonna say

This is a huge dilemma for them - they can't GIVE them away to anyone needy because that goes against everything they stand for. They're going to have to sell them.

[HankyDubs]

5. I guess smearing baby blood

all over everything under the sun isn't quite as lucrative as it used to be.

[NBachers]

6. Rate it up on YouTube

Haw Haw Haw Haw- Looks like all the teabaggers were lolly-gagging.

FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL!

[donheld]

25. Indeed, done

[sensate2000]

7. Teabaggers don't like to drink from water bottles...

Because they prefer segregated fountains.

[Chipper Chat]

10. Ha ha. Good one!

Personally, I think the annoying music was keeping people away.

8. That's less money for the Prop Haters to make trouble with.

God is not dead, she just told everyone to stay home and roast weenies instead.

9. wow and a five word song too, they really put themselves out there

didn't they? Love the water wall too.

11. I was going to go but I had to wash my hair instead.

I'm SO GLAD I did.

I bet those water bottles cost them a pretty penny.

[Joanne98]

12. Spoiled brats!

[Crowman1979]

13. Yes! The plastic fetus dude from "Jesus Camp" has failed!

MUHAHAHAHA!!!

[Semi_subversive]

14. I could see them setting up from my office

on Capitol Mall last Friday. I was hoping that maybe a space ship would come and take them all away.

[mlevans]

15. From the look of that scene, I'd say you got your wish.

[DeSwiss]

16. K&R!

THIS THREAD HAS EARNED

[Aslanspal]

17. Someone needs to follow the money ..investigate

How was this event paid for it is obvious it is not a grass roots donation generated.

My gut is some big sugar daddy steps up...not totally but ..Tim Lahaye abused us in writing fearmongering books in series and made 100's of millions...other sugar daddys? someone needs to
follow the money.

estimates at the event costs 5 million to 10 million

how could 6 thousand people pay for that??

[vaberella]

18. I love the people walking by. They seem utterly oblivious to the blankness and nonsense.

I would totally steal a case of water.

[AsahinaKimi]

19. Looks like the party of "No!"

said "No!" to the wrong party.

[quark219]

20. LOL ... looks like a ghost town. Half expect a tumbleweed to blow by. < N/T>

[Grassy Knoll]

21. Did you feel it ?

I felt it.....

22. I put a link on failblog.org

I think it is deserving of that site!

[Bennyboy]

23. The press here was fawning all over this event...

Seems they only got about 1/10th of it right.

[HughBeaumont]

24. That's just funny . . . but watch the videos from up front.

My GOD. The Zombie Apocalypse is upon us. These people will not stop until they have control of this nation. What a sad farcical movement of weakness. Religion could be OK if it weren't for the fanatics, who unfortunately seem to be getting more and more numerous as time goes on (this video notwithstanding).
