Not much starch in that stiffy.

Trump And Bill O'Reilly Tour Still Not The Hottest Ticket In Town

The traveling “History Tour” featuring former President Donald Trump and former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly saw yet another underwhelming crowd during its Houston leg on Saturday, The Houston Chronicle reported.

“Top sections were blocked off, and there were still plenty of seats available” at the slated start time.

The event took place at the Toyota Center in downtown Houston.

Chronicle reporter Jeremy Wallace tweeted a photo showing a large number of empty seats.

Five minutes before tipoff and this what it looks like around the arena as Trump and O’Reilly prepare to take the stage. Top sections are blocked off. Kind of looking like a Houston Texans crowd. Lots of room to spread out.


Though the event was scheduled for 3 p.m., Trump didn’t arrive until nearly two hours later, the newspaper reported. O’Reilly explained to the audience that the former president had been delayed by the inclement weather, according to the Chronicle.

A message from a tardy Trump was posted on the Twitter account of his aide Liz Harrington, saying “airport opened, landing now.” There was no notice on airport websites that Houston’s George Bush International Airport or the William P. Lobby were closed on Saturday.

O’Reilly, who was fired from Fox News in 2017 after being accused of sexual harassment, boasted of a “great crowd” at the Toyota Center.

Last Saturday, Trump crowed about expected “big crowds!” in the Florida town of Sunrise, but top seating sections were blocked off in the event venues for Sunrise and the Orlando stop which followed. To fill empty spots, attendees moved to lower seats.
