An article published several days ago written by an anonymous attendee made the claim that the management for the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma sabotaged attendance for the campaign rally by President Trump held there last Saturday resulting in thousands of empty seats in the BOK Center and the cancellation of plans for Trump and Vice President Pence to speak to an expected overflow crowd of thousands on a stage set up just outside the arena before speaking at the rally inside.
The fire marshal and arena management put attendance at just over 6,000 while the Trump campaign claimed 12,000 had cleared metal detectors. [Video]

Doesn't matter how many pull the lever for Trump. The fraud mail-ins will cancel them out.

Okay. Do the next rally in a stadium. Maybe AT&T in Arlington or another stadium in a GOP-friendly city? Let
em block off every other seat.

Did you read the article? It seemed to me that the marking of every other seat as not to be used had to do with COVID-19 and the social distancing requirement, not any malicious intent on the part of the Arena.
This sounds more like another hysterical article from TGP in reaction to an anonymour “tipster”. That tipster could be a Dem for all anyone knows.

Not surprised at all that this happened. The deal is, do everything and anything to stop Trump from winning. If you have to cheat, do it! These people knew exactly what they were doing. They wanted CNN and the rest of the Media to be able to say, look, only a meager 6,000 turned out when Trump said it would be 20,000! They wanted the Talking Point! I agree that Trump needs to have his own people in TOTAL control of any future Rallies! You can be sure wherever it is, there will be those who will try to sneak in and cause trouble!

Well, yeah ... the Arena folks did put a label on every other seat for distancing. I'm okay with that.
But the article says that after the folks were seated, the arena people went and took the labels off many of the seats.
Sounds like the BOK management folks had the "time share" sales rule -- all you gotta do is screw the customer once, because he's only gonna be your customer once.

Is there any way to read a posted Gateway article that doesn't blast you with popup ads? It was very difficult to read all the way through it. I have no idea whom to believe. And as a poster notes about venue management: I say you pays your money and you takes your chance.

How many people stayed away over fears of having their cars vandalized? Same reason it's rare to spot Trump stickers on vehicles, despite his widespread support. Tolerant leftists are a twisted, cowardly lot who take no issue with vandalizing property that does not belong to them.

The Mayor of Tulsa did not want President Donald John Trump to appear in Tulsa. He is a sting puppet for George Kaiser.

If the arena didn't want to host the event, they could have refused. Instead they used typical underhanded Leftist tactics. The manager's tweet proves their intent.
Further, "the state had entered phase 3 of its reactivation plan, full capacity events like the Trump campaign rally were allowed, and the city’s public safety agencies had already signed off on the event.". Full capacity events were allowed so they had NO right to mark seats.
Sue the management company for breach of contract and interference with the event. Demand that Marciano be fired.

Jay Marciano, head of the BOK management company, should be fired because of his obnoxious tweet following the planned sabotage of the POTUS' rally.

As Poster #10 said/suggested I don't trust Mayor GT Bynum who claims to be a "Republican." NOT! He got elected by splitting the Republican vote by running as a Republican against the sitting (true) Republican Mayor Dewey Bartlett. The first thing Bynum did after getting elected was put the previous Democrat Mayor Kathy Taylor on his staff. She was a horrible mayor that nearly bankrupt the city. It was so bad the city lawns, ROWs, and parks weren't mowed.
Back to the rally. I went to the BOK area in the afternoon before the rally. People were filing in at 1 pm and I thought after waiting several hours in the sun that I would likely end up not getting in and stand outside watching the rally on the jumbo-tron.
I watched the rally on TV and see empty seats behind VP Pence as he was finishing his speech. I immediately jump into the car and get to the BOK Center in less than 10 minutes. As I was driving downtown I saw people walking to their cars (apparently to leave?). I thought that's strange. As I go though an intersection near the BOK I roll down the window and asked the cop directing traffic in the intersection if they are letting anyone in the rally? He said no. However, I saw hundreds? thousands? of people by the barricaded entrance to the rally. One of my neighbors who tried to get into the rally posted this online: "The arena was not full because the Secret Service closed the doors and would not allow ANYONE in once Trump was en route. Why? Because of the potential for violence from the protestors."
So there you go.

Pretty obvious: they removed the distancing signs after the seats were filled to impart that the arena didn't fill up. Otherwise, why not leave the paid-for signs in place for the next attraction?

If government is involved, then it's bias in favor of demosluts.

hold rallies at nascar race tracks, 100,000 seats, open air but with sheltered area in case of rain, usually multiple jumbo screens. And generally where real Americans live.

President Trump needs to put his own people in charge of taking temps and manning the gates. They just can't trust even venue management anymore. Leftists really suck!!
