Critics will say these numbers are deceiving, since soccer stadiums are much bigger than basketball and hockey arenas.

The size of the stadium doesn't matter, it's how many people go to the game. If the stadium seats 50,000 and only 10,000 show up per game, the average is still 10,000.

And I thought most new soccer stadiums in the US seat about 20,000?
