The venue looks huge... from Wikipedia it seems to have a 17,000+ seating capacity. No wonder it looks half empty most of the time. Though if this were in Japan, seats would probably be filled to the rafters.

 

In comparison, Megasport Arena for COR has 14,000 seats, while Brandt Centre for SCI has just around 7,000.

Megasport was virtually full. There were more people there than here. 

But this is the intermission, many people have gone to have a snack or sneak off to the loo.

Yup, I sort of guessed that. While watching the comps here it's just that I noticed there were whole blocks of seats that seemed virtually empty. So I got curious about the seating capacities.

Those were the VIP and guest stands. What infuriated me is that they don't offer to sell those best seats...

But otherwise it was packed. The galleries were full.

Yeah, esp. during the Sat and Sun comps, the Megasport arena was full.

 

Now I'm imagining if ever Yuzu decides to come back to COC, and with his huge fanbase in China, it will probably become a battle to get tickets even in this 17k seater arena lol.

now they interviewed vincent..? 

Vince is getting interviewed... because he speaks Chinese? 

Err, they're interviewing Vincent. Does he speak Mandarin?

These short interviews are a bit... weird. lol. But probably it's just because I'm not used to them.

 

And wow at Vincent's Chinese!

Vincent looks different here. Maybe it's the hair.
