I find it hard to believe that 350K number. It might be but a state that is only 2.9 million with other games going on and the largest counties are all 2 hours plus away and the heat. If true explain it to a simple person. Just think of the stink from all that BO packed in that small space.
The 350K number is total nonsense.
Oxford / OM only have 35K combined.
Lafayette County proper has another 25K.
Stadium holds 60K, at least 1/3 of which will be overlap with the students and city/county general population.
So, 60K total in Oxford / Lafayette County as full-time residents. Another 40K in the stadium from further outside of town. That’s 100K total, right there.
So, you’re telling me there are going to be 250,000 people that are both coming into Oxford for at least one overnight stay, and NOT going to the football game? Total BS.
