“Almost One Million people request tickets for the Saturday Night Rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma!” he tweeted.
Given that the capacity of the arena in which the event is to take place is just 19,000, and the population of Tulsa is just over 400,000, you might think that this would present a logistical nightmare to the planners.
The conclusion that I draw is that people from outside of Tulsa requested tickets, thus inflating the total number of requests above the number of the city's population. Not really all that surprising, People do travel out of town to attend these things.

Yes! I know people who would travel a hundred miles to attend a Trump rally.

Prob the WH staffers calling in back to back to make it look BIGGLY!
It would be funny, though, if a bunch of anti-Trump kids requested all the tickets they could. But it would also be wrong. So don't do that, kids.
