With tickets sold out in all rounds as home team, Botafogo ‘inflates’ the average crowd at Nilton Santos; see the numbers
Botafogo's success in Brazilian football has been marked by the fans' strong support for Nilton Santos. The defeat to Bahia, last Saturday (26), marked the fifth consecutive match in which the black and white team sold out all tickets and exceeded the limit of 30 thousand fans as home team. On a day marked by the brilliant performances of Diego Costa and the performances of players trained by Glorioso, the fans had the second largest audience in history in this edition of the Brasileirão (see graph below). Significant support was also reflected in Glorioso's traffic and revenue. The “acceptance” of the fans was also evident in the numbers. At the beginning of the competition, Alvinegro managed to mobilize an average of 22 thousand people. The combined revenue from the first six Niltão tournaments reached R$6,100,735.00. Growth under the command of Bruno Lage has increased the value of the team and brought more support. The numbers are even higher in the last five games. The average attendance was 39,618 per game. Consolidated revenue was R$9,312,875.00. After that, the average rose to 30 thousand. The peak of Botafogo fans came in the 4-1 defeat to Coritiba. On the day the club received authorization to sell Setor Sul tickets to fans, more than 43 thousand people attended Nilton Santos. Games against Vasco, RB Bragantino, Coritiba, Internacional and Bahia also boosted revenue. Combined, the games generated R$ 15,336,310.00. The average attendance in all 11 Alvinegro games so far at Niltão also draws attention. Currently, it has 28,951 fans, given the average number of spectators per game. Botafogo leads the Brazilian Championship with 51 points. And the overwhelming support from his fans continues to be invaluable.
