As for the creative accounting some board members are saying that the attendance figures are misleading because every VIP pass, Super VIP pass, 5 day early entry pass, Platinum pass and line priority pass was counted as five entrances instead of one person attending.

Either way it was a lot of people.
I have always wondered about that. I usually have a Super VIP and Platinum Pass, so do they count me as 2 people attending? I also have several friends who have both of those and multiple VIP passes to get more autograph tickets and the promos.

But how about all those people who got in for free because they lent out their badges to bring others in - every day? I can believe this year was the biggest attended. I was actually surprised that 2021 didn't beat out the 1991 National which previously held the record until this past one (2023).

Kids under 12 get in for free too, so I'm not sure how they count them.

Actually i was kinda surprised that back corner that was pretty brutal temp-wise when the AC conked out didn't smell riper than it did. Or maybe I just passed through at less stinky points??
