They'd need some serious walk up to have an even decent crowd. And walk up isn't a thing like it used to be due to technology making ticket buying so easy. Combine that with a crappy looking day and I'd say we'll have 22-24k.


I thought this was a bit of an overstatement when I first read it. Some of the 'sections' (I assume you were dividing, say, section T into lower and upper to get your count? I think a few of those sections were actually sold out, not 'not for sale'.


Danny Austin has reported that sales sound like they are over 28k.

You are correct in saying that sales won't move much from that, given that the weather isn't perfect, and as you said 'walk up' ticket sales are pretty much a thing of the past.
