Robin announced that each state gets 20 tickets.
100 seats are being held for staff, judges guests, sponsors, etc.
That leaves about 200 seats to be divided up among everyone else.
Sounds like a lot of disappointed volunteers.

Who cares about volunteers ( what about the families?) (NT) No name

the fact that she could not find a larger venue tells me she is a failure. Even my small town has a larger venue than that. (NT) so sad

Wow! She really learned a lot from the bafoonery of last year. (NT) No name

Many high school auditoriums hold more people? (NT) I'm confused

So it won't be the Walt Disney Theater as last year? A smaller theater with only 1300 seats by this calculation? And will talent be a different venue again? (NT) Not a good sign

This is a simple case of no sponsorship and investment. If it remains in Orlando she easily could move it away from the resort areas to local areas. Spectrum stadium at UCF. Even any large theater at UCF or any local college or university. Lakeland is also a good option. I will never forget texas last year posting a message she is going to Disney world 😂 Hun you were nowhere near Disney world lol (NT) No name

Why is she stuck in Orlando? She could move it somewhere else. My city would love to host Miss America and they have a couple of venues in the 5 -7000 seat range. It would be like having your favorite Aunt, who was once rich and glamorous, come stay with you now that she's lost (or drunk up ) all her money. You know she's broke, but she's still got stories ( and the clothes!) (NT) -- No name, 11:59:26 10/05/24 Sat (syn-065-188-072-067.wifi.spectrum.com/65.188.72.67)

I have said for years it should be rotated. attract different crowds. support different communities. The same could be done for state pageants where they are geographically large. (NT) -- sponsors don't have to give a ton every year then, 14:20:16 10/05/24 Sat (69-9-235-254-dynamic.midco.net/69.9.235.254)

My guess would be that she would have to pay to get her FL friends to travel to a pageant outside of the state. Last year, she had "day use" judges. This year she claims she already has the panels set. We will see. (NT) No name

I think your calculations need some major help. The Miss and Teen pageants are not held together so 52 x 20 = 1040. The Walt Disney Theater (same as last year) seats nearly 3k. I don't know anyone that didn't go last year that wanted to. (NT) No name

This is mostly false and has no context. Stop talking. About things you have no direct knowledge of. And yeah, take a math class while you’re at it. (NT) No name

Wasn’t ROBIN’s 1st PROMISE when she took over was that she would never hold the pageant during the holidays (NT) No name

Here 2nd PROMISE was thet SHE had enough money to run the pageant for another 100 years. (NT) -- No name, 15:11:16 10/06/24 Sun (mail.basketballcity.com/38.96.160.130)

the only night the venue was sold out was for the Miss Finals. I doubt there is any more interest this year than last for Miss America. There should be plenty of tickets available (NT) No name

I know many people who won’t go until Robin is gone (NT) No name
(NoHost/216.250.207.130) 08:23:39 10/07/24 Mon

yeah right (NT) -- No name, 08:52:50 10/07/24 Mon (NoHost/128.163.239.213)

There are much larger venues all over the coutnry. Until it sells out 3-4 years in a row every night, There is no reason to move it. Last year was the best Miss America Pageant in a long time. Were there lots of things to improve on? DEFINITELY. (NT) No name
