Sunday, October 7th...busy, eh?

So with Monday, October 8th being Canada's Thanksgiving and this weekend sort of being a holiday for them (hence the extended CP hours on Sunday)...

Does anyone have any idea how much busier this Sunday might be compared to a regular Halloweekends Sunday?

I'm just not sure how large of a Canadian contingent could be present!?

Monday is Columbus Day in the U.S., which probably has more to do with the extended hours than the Canadian holiday. Schools and government offices are closed on Monday.

I suspect it won't be a typical Sunday.

most school are open on columbus day

i think i will be busy cause it is the last sunday the park is open 10 to 10

Yeah, you're right. I was confusing it with October 12. Most districts, at least in Ohio, will be closed on that Friday.

Still, there are many who will have the day off on Monday.

They are open later hours that day for a reason, although the current forecast calls for a small chance of rain, so we'll see if that affects anything.

I went with my family last year and it was about as busy as a summer weekday (which is to say, much less busy than a Halloweekend Saturday). We're going that Sunday again this year. :)

So if almost all schools got Friday the 12th off, would it be crowded on that Friday do you think? Or do you think it would be a typical Halloweekends Friday?

Between football games and work schedules, I don't think anything will change.

Who knows.

If its rainy, there could be less.

If its sunny there could be more.

If its overcast there could be less.

It its warm there could be more.

If it rains that morning and afternoon there could be less.

If the rain doesn't come until midnight there could be more.

If the Browns are moved (because that's why they were bought by this owner in the first place, and anyone who tries to tell you otherwise has been brainwashed by the corporate machine) there could be more.

If the Bengals fire their coach (to string the fans along when they really want to just move the franchise) there could be less.

If the Horseshoe burns down, there could be more.

If it doesn't there could be less.

If I hit the triple ring in the 9 on my dartboard there could be more.

If I hit the double ring on the 17 with 3 consecutive darts there could be less.

If a kid with cerebral palsy ruins your day by "cutting" in line, there could be more.

If Tim stops complaining about restraints, there could be less.

If the Red Wings beat Anaheim, there could be more.

If the Blue Jackets lose to Columbus Central High School, there could be less.

The problem is, there is no way to actually predict what crowds will be like.

^^Yeah....real astute analysis there!!

Very very creative. Nice work John. If I didn't have dinner at my aunts Sunday there would be more because I would be there, but I won't so there will be less.

The past two weekends here in Cleveland have been gorgeous. I can only imagine what the crowds have been at the park. They're calling for another weekend with highs in the 80's!!! (Is this October??) Add in the holiday and I'd expect a huge crowd this weekend. I'm somewhat glad I've got new house stuff to do this weekend :)

I don't know about last Saturday, but the Saturday before that (Sept. 22nd) the crowds, while large, were not crazy and things were very reasonable...so we'll see what this Sat brings.
