Shirt # 20 in 1998 as an 18 yr old

GIMH · 30-06-2006, 09:52 AM

Correct

Goughy · 30-06-2006, 09:54 AM

Hell fire, that means Ive got to think of a question now. Give me a min.

Goughy · 30-06-2006, 09:59 AM

Since WW2 there have been 2 World Cups where the total attendance was less than 1 000 000 (1 million) and one tournament where the total attendance was over 3 000 000 (3 million).

Name the 3 World Cups described above

One correct but Im not going to say which (I guess this could turn out like the old mastermind boardgame)

GIMH · 30-06-2006, 12:16 PM

I'm gonna guess that 54 was the one under 1 million because well I don't associate the Swiss with big stadia, I may be wrong of course

I'm gonna guess 98 for over 3 million

And the other for low attendances hmmmm 1990? I know the grounds weren't sellous there.

Goughy · 30-06-2006, 12:23 PM

one correct

Summary
1954 & 1962 under & 2002 One correct
54, 90, 98 One correct

BoyBrumby · 30-06-2006, 12:27 PM

Gonna by-pass this prob:

Did 2002 have more than 3,000,000 fans watching it?

Goughy · 30-06-2006, 12:28 PM

No

GIMH · 30-06-2006, 12:30 PM

Let's work together Brumby. 54 or 62 had under 1 million

If it's 62, then that means 98 had over 3 million

My guess is that 54 was under 1 million

A new guess is that 94 was over 3 million

Can't think of the other though

Surprises me as there were only 24 teams & (counts on fingers, runs out...) 12 less games than 98 & 02.

Did 58 have under 1 million?

GIMH · 30-06-2006, 12:39 PM

Good guess actually, with it being in Sweden

As for 94, well think about it, it was in America, most of the grounds hold about 3 million supporters anyway, it's because most Americans are obese so they need more space, but when normal sized people come to watch sports a whole lot can fit in
