Triple H comments on Survivor Series attendance
WWE announced a sold out crowd of 15,609 fans in attendance at the TD Garden in Boston, MA for tonight’s Survivor Series: War Games Premium Live Event.
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H appeared at tonight’s post-show press conference and talked about how they kept opening more sections of the arena, but they continued to sell out. Triple H noted that tonight’s Survivor Series event drew the highest gate for the company in Boston. It was also the highest-grossing Survivor Series of all-time, and the most-viewed Survivor Series of all-time. He described this as an incredibly successful night.
For what it’s worth, WrestleTix noted that there were 40 tickets left at around 4:30pm today. The setup/capacity at that point was 13,042 seats, with 13,002 tickets distributed. WWE usually inflates their announced attendance numbers by around 2,000 or so.
