What's this?

Capacity decreasing from 72,000 to 60,000. Nearly 20% smaller.

50-60,000 is IMHO the new sweet spot for stadium capacity in the digital/streaming era, anything larger will be difficult to fill regularly in the coming decades. Have a high-end experience for all of the fans that want to turn off the tv and wait in numerous lines (parking, bathroom, concessions, etc).
