Depends if you get a large sack or a half sack
I fill up 2 48 quart ice chest almost to the top with a large sack of oyster and ice.
As far as how many people you can feed, that's a loaded question. Me and a good friend of mine sat got to schucking one day on the tailgate and ate a sack of oyster by oursleves. Typically from a large sack of oysters you will get about 3/4- 1 gallon of actual oysters.
When I was a kid my dad would get oysters all the time, he left them under the car port for up to 4 or 5 days at a time and they were still good as long as the temps don't get above 55 or so and you keep them out of the sun. Iced down in a ice chest they can probably go 2 weeks.
