Seemed low, but atmosphere was good. I believe this is the lowest-ever in MLS for Montreal. Empty seats especially in the corners and the camera-side stand.

17,719 in DC for the US/Jamaica game. Looked full, if that was a DC games, I wonder what the odds would be they would have announced a sellout.
These pro leagues should start using the term Distribute Out...because Sellout is not the correct term. They officially announce tickets distributed and not tickets sold.
It's funny how we are picky about how some of the stadiums look empty, but if you watch any of the MLB games you'll see plenty of empty stadiums. Tampa Bay, Toronto, Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago (White Sox), Detroit, Kansas City, Oakland, Seattle, Miami, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati. Yeah I know they have 81 home games, but this is Major League Baseball.
The amount of empty seats at other sports has been widely talked about IMO but this is an MLS forum not MLB thus the reason we talk about it more.
Agreed, that would be great and also if they would announce turnstile numbers. Not that any of it really matters. Would just be fun for us attendance/number nerds.
