He was refearing to the fact the audience was booing Lavilenie whenever hed prepare for his attempts, he dind't mean fairregarding attendance numbers, the stadium was quite packed actualy. I know ppl don't quite get it but thats how Brazilians suport everything, the football mentality is strong on the sport culture so we boo everyone thats not our favored team/athlete whatever and we always choose someone to suport even if theres no Brazilian in it, the crowd usualy picks the weakest team/athlete to suport to try and get the little guy to achieve greatness, so its common to see crowds booing USA on a basketball match x Nigeria for example.

I know, but I was talking about something else.
The athletics stadium was packed, but many of the other events (especially in the first week) were quite empty, and many were criticizing the organisers about it.

I was probably packed in some sectors, but not packed, definetely. The athletics stadium only saw good attendances on the weekend.
On weekdays, the attendance was around 40% or less, more like this (this picture was taken the day after, when there was 04 finals in the evening session, around 20h00) :
