Well, sparse crowds are still better than no crowds, which is probably what you will see in Budapest next year at the qual sessions. (Seriously, athletics isn't a Hungarian sport at all, I am not sure how we will fill those 40.000 seats at the 2023 WCh.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayer injured! tbh, Munich's stadium is a 63,000 seater, Birmingham's was...how much, 12/15,000? it looks that right now there are more than 10,000 people in the stands also in Munich... p.s. love the family name of this Dutch guy...Van Gool! p.s. a couple more "o"s would have been better, though...it would make him more "Latin American broadcaster"...

So, pretty much the same number of Italians watching in the stands than Italians winning medals. maestro, Ted and phelps 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
