AEW Dynamite/Rampage [Milwaukee, WI] Final Count (Correction) (Patreon)
Content
Note: This week's Observer wrote the following:
The show drew 5,200 paid and a little over 5,600 in the building. The building could have held 9,000 for a true sellout for a pro wrestling television set up but the way it was set up, it was mostly full.
After seeing Dave's figures for this show I decided to revisit my estimate and found that I shorted them this week. This was a pre-covid show that was delayed and then moved - the reason I mention that is for these types of shows (see St Louis Rampage in November), the ticket map was opened before I started tracking all shows as closely as I do now. I was late to tracking this one and missed some key sections along the way. Whenever I can - I want to get the closest estimate possible so my apologies on not catching this sooner. I looked back on my notes and realized some sections were not figured in. I keep good enough notes/screenshots for most shows and could circle back on all of this. One note about Dave's numbers up there, a true sell out in this building is more like 7,500 in my opinion.
Let's start with the photographic evidence from AEW's twitter account (and then the ticket map below it). I make note of the tarped off upper deck sections (404-412), the sections parallel to the stage (211, 311, 411, 221, 321, 421) and I didn't make note of them but I did not include the hard camera sections (208, 308):
Here's another way to look at it from the Ticketmaster map:
Considering all of that..
