Announcing high attendances is a good marketing tool. People see it and think there's something interesting happening at the Brisbane Road Stadium, and think I must get myself down there and join the herd.
Who remembers the Torquay 1st home game of the season back in the early Bazza days. The attendance was a made up number of 8k when we all know it was really 5K.

Do you have an overwhelming urge to know how many people attended a cinema showing you were at, or how many people turned up to the pub quiz?

It also helps with getting more money out of sponsors, catering deals, etc…Max B Gold wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 11:16 am Announcing high attendances is a good marketing tool.

Just call it what it is then: number of tickets sold.
Doubt that it would attract as much applause during the game as when 7,000 people congratulate themselves for being 8.200. I guess we all like to pretend we're bigger than we actually are.
