And if you thought County Commission chambers were crowded, it does not compare to the gathering at the Hall of Mayors at City Hall. If this were a championship boxing fight, it would take 15 minutes just to bring up all the dignitaries and current, former and elected officials.
Conspicuous this morning has been 9th Congressional District Rep. Steve Cohen. There is no sign yet of his opponent in next year's Democratic primary, former city mayor Willie Herenton. Much of the police department command staff is present to mange the overflow crowd.
