The 2010 I.I.H.F. World Championship will be played in Germany and one of the games is surely going to draw huge interest simply because of the sheer enormity of the amount of people that could witness the game live and in-person. According to reports the May 2010 hockey game between Germany and the US will be played at Veltins Arena to a crowd just short of 76,000 people. Wow!
Veltisns Arena was built in 2001 chiefly to be new home for German Bundesliga soccer club Schalke 04 and World Cup action from 2004. The Veltins Arena is a pretty cool stadium its got a retractable roof and a slide out grass pitch.
If the game does sellout it will be the largest attended hockey game in history. Michigan State played host to the University of Michigan for an outdoor game in 2001 to a record crowd of 74,554.
