§ Judgement rule

How will the final result of the question be determined?

The question will be judged by the month (or the period with such a month) when spectators in the first football stadium in the USA fill 50% of capacity. This question also ends if a vaccine becomes available for mass inoculation prior to reaching such level.

Bill predicts in The Economist:

Gilette Stadium - Copyright: Bernard Gagnon | Wikimedia"I believe that humanity will beat this pandemic, but only when most of the population is vaccinated. Until then, life will not return to normal. [...] Sports will be played in basically empty stadiums." [1]

Prediki definition:

We generously define 'a basically empty stadium' as one only half full, i.e. at less than 50% of capacity. We look at football stadiums, as football is the most popular sport in the USA.

Bill invests:

  • 10,000 Cr in 'Only after vaccination'

NFL Attendance 2020

Comparing the 2020 NFL attendance numbers to the 2019 average, crowds are only about 30% of the previous years.[2]
