Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is holding a rally near Ft. Myers, Florida in the town of Estero on Monday afternoon and the response is overwhelming.
The 8,000 capacity Germain Arena is not big enough to hold the up to 15,000 ticket holders for the rally. In response the campaign is trying to find a bigger venue on short notice reported WBBH-TV.
Tickets were cut off Friday afternoon as it became apparent the demand would swamp the facility.
Meanwhile scalpers are selling the free ticket to the rally for up to $200 on Craigslist.
