Officials for AMB Sports and Entertainment, which oversees operations of the 71,000-seat Mercedes-Benz Stadium, are preparing to host between 10,000-20,000 fans at Atlanta Falcons home games as the entire league adjusts to limited capacities during the coronavirus pandemic.
“We continue to kind of drill down that number with each week that goes by," Don Rovak, vice president of sales and service for AMB, told ESPN regarding the crowd estimate. “That’s taking into account just all of the league recommendations and [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] guidance. Everything is, No. 1, about player safety, fan safety and staff safety.
