Assuming an average of 3 persons per sqm (excluding the peripheral areas and connecting streets), the total max attendance yesterday for Leni along the whole stretch would have been 525,000.
How many more people would you say spilled over to the peripheries and tributaries - 50,000?, 100,000?, 150,000?
One thing for sure, the crowd was mammoth, thanks to the organizers, volunteer groups and supporters. Take a bow everyone!
