    IIUC, it’s current ‘permanent’ football (soccer) configuration capacity is said to be about 30,991.

    The figure I quoted is the official figure for MLS this season.

    Apology. Confused cause I read it improperly/more as a specific clarification of that night’s circa 28K match attendance. Since very close to the MLS published amount of 28,261 against your 28,351 number, instead of the stadium’s capacity I always understood. Still, that number of 28,351 is very suspect to me even though that seems to be the number confirmed by TFC to MLS for this year; at least. Certainly not the consensus number historically related to BMO Field capacity of 30,991; with published reports suggesting pre-reno seating at 22,000 and an expansion of 8,400 for a total seating capacity of 30,400. Nor, oddly, the number publicly and internationally bandied about and given to FIFA of 27,980 (45,736-17,756). Moreover, it is not supported by TFC’s/MLS’s very own data the last time stadium numbers came close to red-lining with the arrival of the Italians in the latter half/summer of 2022. Steady series of numbers of over <EDIT 28,351> with attendance at 23JUL22/29,067, 13AUG22/28,598, 17AUG22/28,464, 31AUG22/29,130 and 04SEP22/28,793.

    What fun. Warmth and the lake. Bernie a class above. (The unnecessary 91st
    minute yellow a shame, we need him vs (Cincy). When was the last time a match was over by the 18th minute?… in our favour I mean!
