The Atlanta Falcons were playing that same day (obviously in another city). Considering the Atlanta is all about the NFL, it makes even more impressive since people would usually be sitting on the couch watching the Falcons. The World Cup is usually the only event that gets mainstream coverage.

It's a lost cause, they're not gonna be impressed. 

It's was just shocking for me how big the attendance was. I've lived in both the USA and Canada and have only known 1 person who watches the MLS, so 71,000 filling a stadium seems like a big deal for me.

To be fair, maybe it's just because Detroit doesn't have a team.
