The Tigers were playing at the same time and it was Bo's worst season. I was at the top of the stadium with a battery-powered TV watching the World Series game in parallel, and there was plenty of room to spread out. And cheap tickets to be had - much of my family was there, too. I'd guess 85,000 tops.

Nobody really knows what that number means apart from people in the athletic department.
