I would defiantely say 100k.

Put it this way, 1k kids fit into the tiny gym at my school. Each of those blocks of people looks about the same size. Count the blocks, -20% for gaps, and you still have over 100k.

gadget show:
5-600 fro indoor matches

Dunno, how many people could be there?

I'm more concerned with the giant orbs of fire surrounding the audience.

That doesnt look like 6000, and it doesnt look like 100,000.

I think 15,000 - 20,000.

I'd say it's about 50K.
I don't think using pics of stadiums is a good idea because the way they're designed makes it looks much more crowded since you can see most ppl in a shorter distance.
Here is a pic of a demonstration with 100,000 ppl.

In the daytime picture, the blocks of people are about 12x32, with 10 full blocks. Including the others hanging around the edges, I'd say there's no more than 5000 people there. That's still a lot for a game tournament :p.

edit: in the nighttime picture there are at least 17 blocks, giving at least 6500 people.

While 20,000 is somewhat possible (especially for the one held in a stadium), estimates of 100k or higher are probably either a result of miscommunication or deliberate propaganda/marketing. It doesn't really matter though, even just getting thousands of spectators is a hell of a lot for a merely 10 year old game that doesn't lose much, if anything, when watched on TV when compared to normal sports (after all, at a live SC game you're basically just watching the TV broadcast on a huge screen anyway).

20 000 and a 130 000 has a large gap... a really huge large gap.

Wouldn't it be absolutely idiotic of the marketer to inflate the number x5 times more than it is?
Such deliberate fix would most likely be denounced as "unlikely" by these reputable source (the article says 200 000.. Would be quite idiotic to inflate the number x10 or x30 times than it was).

I have no idea what the real number is but it seems more than 20 000 from my view. The "Bell Center" here in Montreal has a capacity of 21 000 people (which I went to a few times) and the arena itself is not all that big. (In fact, it looks just slighter bigger than the NaDa vs Anytime OSL final)

well, there were an estimated 1 million people at the new year thing in time square, it is very easy to pack a lot of people in a small area if they just stand or are seated closely.

i counted similar, and estimate max 4000 seated there. Maybe it could rise to 5000 with standing people or something (being quite generous)

Alright, let me have a look-see.

[image loading]


You've got 12 parcels of 30 rows (counted them) and 25 people per row (I'm being generous here). That's 12x30x25=9000. Bystanders are another few thousand, let's say (again, being very generous). That adds up to about 12 thousand.

[image loading]


If I'm not mistaken, this is the same location, same number of parcels, right?

This is certanly not a 100k crowd, but much, much lower than that.

Edit: I see others beat me to it

lovely how people are like " i guess there's 50000, or "it looks like 100.000" instead of just counting the rows (or even easier, reading the posts of people that already did their work for them) and realize that there are AT MOST 20.000 people on that night time picture and 10.000 on the daytime one.
