Probably about 4000, but with 2 minutes to go it was down to about 3000
HT Entertainment was ok, some gymnasts doing stuff with rings.
3/4T Entertainment was US style cheer leaders - that missed half their lifts - poor effort on their behalf I thought - but I guess it was similar to the effort of the 36ers too

the wheels were gimmicks too. pretty bad on the whole. 6ers dancers were alright though, candy man routine was good.

The Spirals were OK (interesting at least), young girl with the ribbon did a good job, but the three quarter time crew looked very nervous and made a fair few mistakes.

4,000? I'm not sure but both games the places looked about 3/4 full, especially this week and doesnt the dome hold 8,000? not saying there would have been six thousand but looked like 5 strong this week? Anyone got exact figues? Isaac didnt you get those kind of stats last season?
4400 is the official figure
No way the place was 3/4 full not sure how you would have thought that.
Also I doubt the Dome holds 8,000 either, probably closer to 7,500 when set up for basketball.

"Purpose-built for basketball and especially for the 36ers, the Distinctive Homes Dome holds up to around 7,800 fans in courtside boxes, standard seating and elevated corporate suites."

I thought the entertainment was pretty good. I'm quite impressed with it so far this year. I took a girl to the game that doesn't really have much interest in bball so for her the best thing of the night was the gymnasts with rings (Can't really blame her after the performance of the home team). So it is good to see they cater for all varieties. Keep up the good work with the entertainment I say!
