The best lesson of forum etiquette the OP can glean from this novel is to ALWAYS include AS MUCH DETAIL as possible in your original question. That would have prevented about 7 pages of garbage.

I was actually pretty specific. I said I was looking for a way to run a couple of fans for one night without using a generator while boondocking. That is what I was looking for. I think the fact that I was only looking to run a couple of fans should have illustrated that it wasn't going to be smoldering hot. Clearly a couple of fans wouldn't fix that.
It's not my fault most people chose to focus on where I should be staying, how many kids I should have in my camper, how many sites I would need if I was at an actual campground, etc.

Not even close. Your question is way too general hence all the different responses. Try something like this:

Hubby and I (now we know you're a women as MOST members are guys) and our 11 kids will be leaving on a trip Friday evening when he gets off work with our 37' TT. We'll be spending a short first night in a parking lot (arriving after dark) in southern WI and the forecast is for 70's with rain/humidity expected. Looking for ideas for small, cheap fans we can run on batteries just for that one night. We'll have electric hook-up the rest of trip. Thanks! :)

That's ridiculous. You don't have to know ANY of those things to answer my original question. As a matter of fact I probably would've gotten better answers if I had left off the part about 11 kids...which people fixated on. If I had simply said, "I'm looking for a way to run a few fans without the use of a generator while boondocking for a night" people would have focused on my actual problem...and not tried to give me solutions for my lifestyle.
