Obama's USC Rally Moved To A Much Larger Venue

[impik]

For those in the Southern California area, this Friday presents a historic opportunity to hear the 44th President give a barn-burner of a campaign speech.

And now due to an overwhelming number of RSVP's, Team Obama has decided to change the location of the rally scheduled for this Friday, October 22nd on the campus of the University of Southern California.

Darnell From LA's diary :: ::
The rally had been scheduled to take place on the 39,000 sq ft. McCarthy Quad. But yesterday, Organizing for America sent out a mass email announcing the moving of the event to the much larger, 69,000 sq ft Alumni Park.

I contacted the events department at USC for more information and was advised that while the actual event was moved to Alumni Park, they are planning on setting up big screens in the original venue, the adjacent 39,000 sq ft McCarthy Quad and packing in the folks there as well!
