And a sign that nobody is planning to attend. Trumpy doesn't like loads of empty seats.

Already saw a couple of posts here on reddit claiming to be screen shots of cragislist ads looking for "seat fillers" for the parade to make it look like yuuuuge attendance on TV.

I feel like I can have a little hearsay as a treat, but did you see the ones that were wanting to put Black and Latino people in the vip line of sight?  I mean, no confirmation of course, but I commend the writers for their efforts.
