Had to type it out again. Very annoying! Just to let you know that Wordpress also told me to slow down when I went to post a comment on the Needles the other day. Had to type it out again.

Let me know if it happens again. @Franklin, Mark, Maff: Why must we <a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/2006/04/05/worlds-largest-football/#comments" rel="nofollow">always have this argument</a>? ;-) @Tammo: not at all, Wordpress does that when it think you’re posting comments within seconds of each other (like a spambot might).

@Franklin, Mark, Maff: Why must we always have this argument? ;-)

So here goes another attempt: There are a few lampposts in the vicinity which cast nice clear shadows. Those shadows put the sun's Azimuth at fairly close to 125°. If you look at that day's tables for Dresden (the closest location they appear to have) on www.sunposition.net, you get a time of 11:00 ... so it's probably the warm-up party.

That's why the stadium is empty. If the crowd were watching the game as it was happening, we should be able to see it, too. I agree with Nico. That’s why the stadium is empty.
