Marty - I can only vouch for opening week; the resturants and bars were far from empty, plenty of people in for opening weekend (although the weather played a huge factor in the first two day's attendance) and for the most part was fairly typical... I personally didn't witness some dramatic dearth of people... Not sure if it's held up, but knowing a bunch of folks with plans of still going I'd say it's probably down in a very small part due to the economy but nothing appreciable. Maybe more and more folks are beginning to come in later in the meet, avoiding the mayhem of opening week...I am planning on do that next year myself....
