It’s funny. In Australia, if 19000 people came to a football match it would be considered a disappointing crowd. Avg for the season was over 37000 across 216 games.
Yeah. There are a couple of small stadiums (<15000). But we had several games that topped 85000 last season. The cricket season just ended with record crowds. Melbourne had over 70000 on 4/5 days. The quiet day was 45000.
This is for ice hockey though, and they play in NBA-sized arenas. There’s currently a college football game being played in Dallas Texas with over 80,000 people in attendance.
