[QUOTE="Jaguares, post: 660234, member: 63264"] Noooooooo, Australia has the record Rugby Union crowd: 109,874 against ABs at the old ANZ Stadium (Olympic Sydney Stadium). They also have the second highest crowd in Rugby Union's history: 107,042 against ABs too. Here is the list:[COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR] [URL]http://stats.espnscrum.com/scrum/rugby/records/team/highest_attendance.html?id=1;type=class[/URL] The former Olympic Sydney Stadium was bigger, in the Olympic Games of 2000 had a capacity to 110,000 but then in 2003 Aussies shortened the stadium to reduced the capacity to 83,500. I'm not sure why, maybe because a stadium to 110,000 it's more expensive and in a country with only 20 million inhabitants have not justified such a HUGE stadium. The former Olympic Stadium - Sydney 2000: [IMG]http://sia1.subirimagenes.net/img/2014/07/29/140729111501882221.png[/IMG] Capacity: 110,000 With the changes, now the stadium holds 83,500. The stadium lost 26,500 seating. [/QUOTE]
