I don't know why people are hating on Druh for dreaming big. Of course she wants an event to be big. Doesn't mean that it's going to be that in it's first year.
I don't think Druh's being hated on for dreaming big. She's being hated on for not having a plan, not thinking things through, and dismissing the legimate arguments against her idea which turned out to be correct. The problem with "I want Calgary to be an awesome city so I'm going to close half a road next to a perfectly good bike path" is in the second part, not the first part, and in the connection between the two.
