Message: [QUOTE="Jeba, post: 2377662, member: 1827"] This isn't ENTIRELY related to State of Origin but I think this is the most appropriate of forums to put this topic into. But have a look at this for sport attendances in Brisbane over the last week. Firebirds grand final win - 3,500 people - sold out in 20 minutes State of Origin 1 - 52,000 - sold out in an hour Suncorp double header - 32,000 people - good crowd considering it was NOT a Broncos home game Doomben 10,000 day - 12,000 people - GREAT crowd considering absence of Black Caviar and Hay List Reds v Crusaders - expecting 50,000 today - Ticketek website indicates only Restricted View seats available Outstanding stuff, nearly 150,000 people attending sporting events in Brisbane in the space of a week. And to think that if Brisbane had a stadium that could hold 100,000 people, Origin still would've sold out, whereas down south they are STRUGGLING to sell-out an 80,000 capacity stadium for an Origin game. Just goes to show that the passion goes up a notch or twelve when you cross the border driving north. [/QUOTE]
