>>15100072>>15100481Ok fuck it I did the calculations. The guy who posts these numbers every month (reddit stardom mark jqncg) always seemed kinda inaccurate so I did the half year calculations.
These are totally wrong about TJPW
>>15099629. Total attendance is actually up 2% on last year (even with with less events than 2023) and average attendance is up 13% per event. I've included the numbers from cagematch if anyone wants to double-check.
Why the discrepancy from reddit man? Because he's fucking stupid and is using his total event attendances from 2023 (including international shows) and comparing it to 2024 totals that only take into account Japanese attendance. Why? I don't know, maybe he just wants to big up Marigold now or some shit. His percentage differences are all wonky and probably wrong for every promotion.
Anyway numbers. I disregarded events without attendance number on cagematch, which didn't significantly affect totals or averages anyway. I also included the 665 number for the 2023 LA show that was reported here, even if there was no official confirmation, just to buoy up last year's number where I could.
2023 midyear totals-1st Jan to 30th June
32 events with attendance numbers (34 total)
12842 total reported attendance
401.3 avg attendnace per event
2023 mid year totals-1st Jan to 30th June
32 events with attendance numbers (30 total)
13151 total reported attendance
453.5 avg attendnace per event
So TJPW have run less shows so far this year compared to 2023, still have higher total attendance (up 2%), and have way higher avg attendance (up 13%).
So yeah TJPW is doing better than their best numbers from last year so far even with slightly less shows. All of this shit is probably wrong since his methodology is super stupid
