Celebration V Attendance Revised

[lazypadawan]

starwars.com posted today that attendance at Celebration V was "more than" 32,000. That's at least 4000 more than a previous estimate of 28,000 and a lot closer to the numbers for Celebration IV. I've seen some scuttlebutt that Lucasfilm had hoped for 40,000 but I don't think that was happening with the economy being what it is or its schedule between several major summer conventions.

Do you think they fudged the numbers?

No. They probably hadn't fully finished counting when the 28K number came out.

Ah, ok.
