So the game sold out within mins. About 29,000 with temp seating.
I don't think it's unreasonable to say 40,000 plus tickets could have beenn presold if it was at EP. Maybe even a sell out.
First time in NZ, novelty factor a bit like the Womens World Cup in 2023.
Plus you could also have got a bit of a walk up crowd in NZ's best traditions. Long range forecast looks okay.
Be interesting see what crowd is bigger. ALM GF or the Super Rugy Pacific final which presumably will be in NZ.

A members-only presale from 9am on Monday saw more than 10,000 tickets sold. The general sale from 4pm saw the remainder of snatched up in minutes.
Many commenters on social media were disappointed to miss out, with some calling for the game to be moved to Eden Park, due to high demand.
