Today former president Bill Clinton came to WVU in support of his wife.
The campaign was supposed to start at 8:30am, but instead it started at 9:30.
I must say, crowds are very frustrating when you are short.
Being my 5'1" self, I could barely see over anyone.
I just have to say, I love the people who say excuse me to get by you and then end up standing INFRONT of you.
These two older women did it to me. I know you're supposed to respect the elderly, but who wouldn't be frustrated if people taller than you butted in front and made it so that you couldn't see?
THEN, it starts to drizzle and all these people put up their umbrellas near the front.
Personally, I think that's rude. Don't put an umbrella up in a crowd. Not only does it block peoples view, but the rain running off the umbrella pours onto the people around you.
Thankfully, the rain cleared before Bill came out and the sun started to shine.
I was about halfway back from the podium so I had to zoom in with the camera. (Thats why the pics aren't the greatest.)
It was a good experience though.
I'm a Hillary supporter so I was happy to see that at least someone cares about West Virginia.
I ended up skipping my first class to watch him but come on, how many chances do you get to see Bill Clinton in person?
