https://www.politicususa.com/2019/10/10/trump-greeted-empty-seats-minnesota-rally-impeachment.htmlAccording to KMSP-TV/FOX 9 political reporter Theo Keith, the presidents campaign manager even took to the stage minutes before the rallys start time to claim that there were only empty seats because so many people were getting food at concession stands.
But the picture shared on Keiths Twitter account shows rows and rows of empty seats in the upper level, making the concession stand explanation laughable.
Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale just got on the mic to urge people at concession stands to take their seats because the president is in the building.
There are many empty seats in sections of the upper level behind the podium, though the rest of the arena is quite full. pic.twitter.com/CpRIGaNhTV

Is that normal, vs having some vending machines? Do they serve alcohol to get crowd uninhibited?
