“So, you’re saying that the stadiums were full as before?”
absolutely not. but anyone can post “empty stadium” pics that there is no way to verify when they were taken. OTOH, yesterday a Freeper posted turnstile totals of ALL the games on Sunday and the numbers would indicate the stadiums were essentially full. AND i’ve personally already seen too many “empty stadium” pics that i know were fake because i watched those games and could see from live TV shots during the game that the stadiums were full or mostly full.
independent of game coverage video, the only way to know for sure is to set up a live video steaming feed during a game, and no one has done that.
RE: absolutely not. but anyone can post “empty stadium” pics that there is no way to verify when they were taken.
True, but OTOH, it could also be true that the empty stadium pics were really as taken during the games. We just don’t know at this point other than by reading the above reports. So, we can’t dismiss them as “fake news” outright.

So have I! Seats were mostly full in SF when the Cowboys played there Sunday. ...Yet, some posted it just “looked” that way because the seats were red.
It was a tribute day to Dwight Clark and most fans were wearing the red t-shirts given to them to honor Clark.
There may be some half-empty stadiums at NFL games, but they are likely games I wouldn’t choose to watch anyway.
I agree with you that most of the “empty seats” pics are not taken when the stadiums have butts in the seats during the games.
