11 Of The Strangest Moments You Missed At The Republican National Convention
People aren't exaggerating when they call the Republican National Convention a "circus."
Inside the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, chaos broke out several times in the course of the week as the Republican party's tensions were felt.
On convention grounds, just outside the arena, music blasted and Facebook had a station set up with a fake mini Oval Office and a virtual reality preview.
And outside the security-guarded convention grounds, onlookers, protesters, police and journalists milled about around East 4th Street. They held funny signs, did silly things and hung out with their pet reptiles.
Protesters -- and counter-protesters -- and meta trolling protesters -- spread their messages of anger, hope, fear and memes for everyone to see.
Convention grounds are a prime space for some bizarreness and the Republican National Convention did not disappoint. Check out some of the weirdest things we saw in Cleveland this week.
