Get back to us when you pull 100,000 to your grand final, TBomb. Fifth biggest sporting even my rear end!
when the Olympic Stadium was built the 1999 GRAND FINAL had 108k fans.
and that was St George Illawarra v Melbourne Storm
before it reverted to a 83k stadium
The reason that Grand Final got 108K is only because of the capacity of the stadium thanks to the Olympics which was 120K.
So technically that grand final did not sell out because there was 12,000 empty seats.
The AFL would sell out a 300,000 stadium for a footy grand final.
Why are you fumblers wrong continuously .
Oh & before you say it was 2 k below capacity .
Aflol claims sellouts with 5k missing from capacity .
Stadium Australia, currently known as Accor Stadium for sponsorship purposes, is a multi-purpose stadium located in the Sydney Olympic Park, in Sydney, Australia. The stadium, which in Australia is sometimes referred to as Sydney Olympic Stadium, Homebush Stadium or simply the Olympic Stadium, was completed in March 1999 at a cost of A$690 million[1] to host the 2000 Summer Olympics.[2][3] The Stadium was leased by a private company, the Stadium Australia Group, until the Stadium was sold back to the NSW Government on 1 June 2016 after NSW Premier Michael Baird announced the Stadium was to be redeveloped as a world-class rectangular stadium. The Stadium is owned by Venues NSW on behalf of the NSW Government.
The stadium was originally built to hold 110,000 spectators, making it the second largest Olympic Stadium ever built and the second largest stadium in Australia after the Melbourne Cricket Ground which held more than 120,000 before its re-design in the early 2000s. In 2003, reconfiguration work was completed to shorten the north and south wings, and install movable seating. These changes reduced the capacity to 80,000, with the capacity to add seating depending on the venue configuration.
