I was just at the Michigan - Notre dame game with 111,000 other folks, and
looking at this picture, it has to be over a million, I have little doubt
about it.

I didn't verify any of the metro ridership figures (too busy this

but using Metro ridership and comparing to the increase in ridership over
a

ridership/estimate of people arriving on buses, etc for the inauguration
seems reasonable. Their estimate for 9/12 is 313,000 to 433,000 attendees.
