appear to be full of the TSF's fans. I'm labeling the video by whomever as deceptive. Of course there wouldn't be many people standing outside where they couldn't see. Keep the camera rolling while walking forward into the arena and I'll bet there were plenty of idiot drones facing inward towards the stage from the tiny grandstands.

There are always going to be people milling in and out, just check out any sporting event crowd.
