Hargrove served as general contractor for the convention, which included what it billed as the widest tent in the world: the media tent, at approximately 200 feet wide. In all, there were more than 300,000 square feet of tenting, more than 42 miles of cabling, and 12 megawatts of power—enough to power 2,000 homes.
