just an observation...

In my honest opinion, the "white box" only appears to be on stage. It is, IMO, an optical illusion. You can see it in the video below at :12+

It is just the high angle and distance of the video shot that makes it appear as if the white box (which is either a light or sound equipment) is on stage.

I don't see any logical reason why there would have been 2 press conferences; nor do I see how we would not have heard about it if there had been, since clearly there were fans/a crowd at both of them if that had actually taken place.

@Christina:
thanx for the explanation... i looked at it further and it appears to
be a light that is on a pole..but the man in the blue jacket...well
i can.t figure that one out...
