[edit] Hugely popular?

I agree that the show is hugely popular, but I also think that will appear as POV to many who don't know the various statistics that would back that up. I do believe it is one of the largest shows of its kind in the country, and it is very well attended. At the same time, I don't know sources for this information off-hand. Stevie is the man!

It also adds a level of analysis that editors should leave to secondary sources. "Popular" is relative, and "hugely" is POV and relative. How about we cite recent statistics as to attendance, profits, vendors and such, instead of just assuming that the reader understands what "hugely popular" means? --NewtΨΦ 18:14, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Well, knowing the show locally, there's no question it is popular in relation to just about any other event in Louisville, but I'd be happy to drop "hugely". Citing statistics is, of course, a very good idea as well. If you can find them, please add them. Stevie is the man! TalkWork 18:21, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Should this be mentioned?
