199,500 saw the 1950 World Cup where Brazil lost to Uruguay, 1-2 at the Maracana Stadium in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. So what's your point?
Re: Blue Bolshevik Salt Lake City, UT
You're trying to compare a world cup soccer game 60 years ago to a religious conference? A better question would be what other events drawing that many people to an event in Utah?
