If anything the reported figures are actually lower than actuals because of comps. And there are a lot of those at the TC races.

There are two things I know for sure.....it was obscenely crowded and the attendance figure was fabricated. If it makes you happy to not believe me then feel free to go right ahead.
I hope you were able to find something else of interest in the thread, and considering the foolishness you spouted recently about Round Pond, which you never revisited after she lost, I am surprised you have the gall to pursue this ridiculous argument with me. On the other hand....very little surprises me with some posters here.
