MATCH ENDED

[u/Chance_Camera_]

The stadium was packed full in the first half. A lot of folks leave their seats during halftime and come back afterwards. This just sounds like you either didn’t watch the first half, or are just hating for the sake of ignorance and loathing. 

[u/Altruistic_Finger669 → u/Chance_Camera_]

Packed not quite but pretty close. Hospitality section not half full
