I think 80K is still more than most pro arenas.
Many pro teams limited stadium capacities when the NFL had the blackout rule requiring 85% of tickets to be sold 72 hours prior to a game or the game would be blacked out on local television. They suspended it in 2015 and 2016. The Vikings were one team that had problems selling enough tickets and local businesses often bought blocks of tickets to help them avoid the blackout.
