196!!! entered in the women's 200 backstroke. Fortunately for the volunteers, there are, at most, only 10 heats of the men's 1500M.
Welcome my friends, to the meet that never ends.
We're so glad you qualified, come inside, come inside,
The lanes are more than packed they're super packed
Be careful arms don't crash, warming up, warming up.
Take your seats, prelims about to roll,
Two thousand swimmers going for the gold.....
For 2016, it seems like it would be pretty easy to trim the field with only some small adjustments to the cuts. For example, there are 179 entries in the men's 50 free. If the cut had been 23.29 rather than 23.49, the number of qualifiers would have been 94. I don't think anyone would call an adjustment of 0.2 seconds unfair.
