If you thought Ocean City was crowded last weekend, turns out you were so right.

The number of people flooding the resort town was up at least 15 percent over the same weekend last year, according to official estimates.

Ocean City's population estimate for 2010 was 226,679. This year, there were an estimated 260,794 people in the popular Maryland beach destination.

That explains why a colleague had to call seven hotels before finding an available room. With the air show, car show and the Maryland State Bar Association annual meeting, it's no surprise Ocean City was packed.
