I remember articles saying 120 000, 150 000 even 200 000 people attended the proleague finals.

Does anybody have any idea what the number of people expected to attend the next Proleague final between CJ and MBC?

Many thanks.

haha this is like a question for the executives marketing department of MBC. Don't think I could answer that...

Look at that famous Proleague finals between KTF and SKT1 couple of years back in Pusan, on the beach. I think a fairly optimistic estimate was 20.000 people, and even such a relatively small number looked like a damn huge crowd. Though watching finals and knowing there's a huge 100.000 crowd in there, cheering, would be a revelation in itself, I don't think such a number is a reasonable expectation. Besides, where are the finals being held anyway?
players do games, press mens do their things. and fans do make good cheers.

"Over 140 professional game tournaments have been held with a combined prize money of more than 5 billion won. Some 200,000 people gathered in Chamsil Baseball Stadium to see one of the final matches last year. And with the growing success and popularity of these tournaments, more large companies are sponsoring game leagues or pro-gaming teams and more youngsters dream of becoming a pro gamer when they grow up."

What..the..we need a Korean spy to immediately confirm or reject these claims! That's more than the amount of people that fit in the Maracana stadium in Brasil :o

they said that the crowd there was estimated 100-130,000 people, according to uzoo and eforce

probably the real number was less, but i doubt it's as low as 20,000, where did you get that number from? source?

By the way, while we're on it, how much would it cost to watch the finals and/or a OSL starcraft match?

I see.
Makes sense I guess since your really watching it on tv.

I'm guessing their only revenue is through exposure?

100-130.000? I have been living a lie. Though that might be counting in the total number of visitors in the broader area, I don't think I've seen more than approximately 15.000 seats in the VODs.

That's one of the pictures I was using as an argument, no way is that anywhere near 100.000 people, even when packed at gametime.

the finals in pusan was literally on the beach, so they probably included the pple sitting around on the sand, walking by in the nearby city just catching a glimpse ofit, or just stopping by for 10 mins then going on abou ttheir business as well.

the 20,000 count comes from estimating how many seats were in one "block" of the crowd section, then multiplying by the number of chair "blocks"

I don't think that's a hundred thousand. A hundred thousand fills central park! (I'm awfully terrible at numerical estimates, so please excuse my disbelief)
