I might just have to drive-by the location to see if it lives up to the hype. Seems the "busloads" of people is already a likely misconception. The Abbey Inn seems to be quoting what seems to be a typical rate for Cedar City rooms.
"One of the few locations in the world" Chuckle.
KSL ran a story yesterday that included the mayor of Kannaraville, who stated he expected "busloads" of people from southern Cal and Salt Lake City. They even showed the field where they are going to herd everyone. He is even now contracting for enough porta-potties for five-thousand people on that field.
I'm thinking that the general public might get the idea that this happens every year, due to the word "annular". LOL!
