They are announcing a sell out crowd for today with even SRO seats sold out.  In the past the team has called a game sold out with several thousand seats below capacity listed as the official attendance, but in this case with the standing room tickets they might have actually sold as many as they did for the Philly games last year.  Do we set the attendance record today?  Or is the announced attendance significantly lower than official capacity?  I say somewhere in the middle with just over 40K as the number.[...]

Close enough - published attendance was 40,907, about 600-700 short of a 'true' sell-out.
