"Pack your patience, whether traveling a great distance or locally, people will be out and about to catch a glimpse of the eclipse," said Aixa Diaz, a spokesperson for the American Automobile Association, according to The Mirror.
    A crowd is expected to gather at the epicentre of the eclipse, which is Ohio's Lorain County, in an attempt to get the perfect view. Crowds will be seen in cities, towns and remote areas, and many of these places may not have the infrastructure to handle so many people.
