Clinton asked the crowd if they remembered when her and Bill Clinton stopped in Erie at about 2 a.m. during Bill Clinton's 1992 election campaign.

She called it one of the highlights of that campaign, the fact that people stayed until 2 a.m. that morning waiting for their bus.

"Bill and I talk about that [visit] all the time," she said.
