Stadium Capacity

[Tornado88]

What is the highest capacity a stadium can currently hold? Highest I have seen is 111, 000. I don't really see how it can go any higher than this?

The highest stadium capacity when the last stadium is built with all its seating upgrades is 260,000. Thats got to be on the unrealistic side of things.

Not half! Biggest capacity stadium in the world is 150, 000!

Maracana in the old days held up 200,000 but that was terracing before it was redevoleped, Wembley held upto 127,000 in the old days with possibly a very much higher attendance in the 1923 FA Cup final in the famous white horse final where too many fans were allowed into the stadium.

Actually in the old days, there was no seats in the stadiums.

Yes, There was no seats in those stadiums and we are no where near 260,000 in most cases, Nou Camp 98,000, Wembley 90,000, San Siro 80,000. None of todays major stadiums are any where near 260,000. 6 of the Top 10 stadiums in the world are used for NFL.

May Day Stadium, 150,000 North Korea. Wiki is a very good source of info, you can't beat it, but its not always correct, some moron put 2012-13 winners of the Turkish Liga as Fenerbahçe prematurely, so I had to edit the article to what it was beforehand.

just a minor correction:

Those 6 stadiums are used for American Football, but they aren't NFL teams. They are NCAA college football teams.

College American Football? Really, They get 100,000 people to watch College Football? Thats like our equlivent of Filling up Old Trafford, Emirates Stadium or Even Wembley for a Youth League or FA Cup Match or a NextGen Series Match.
