Super Bowl LV kicked off between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs, Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida looked full with the help of some fake fans.

55屆超級盃在坦帕灣海盜隊與堪薩斯酋長隊的對決中揭開序幕,佛羅里達州坦帕灣的詹姆斯球場在一些假球迷幫助下,看起來客滿。

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the NFL had approximately 25,000 in the stadium for the 55th Super Bowl, far fewer than the 70,000 fans that attended the big game the last time it was held in Tampa.

由於疫情持續,美國國家美式足球聯盟(NFL)在第55屆超級盃體育場大約有25000名觀眾,遠遠少於這場大型賽事上次在坦帕舉行的7萬名球迷。

To make up the difference, the NFL produced 30,000 cardboard cutouts of fans to fill most of the remaining seats.

為了弭補差額,NFL製作3萬個球迷人型立牌,來填補剩餘的大部分座位。

Unlike other sporting events where the cardboard cutouts are all bunch together in some areas of the stadium that receive the most TV coverage, the fake Super Bowl fans are spread out to keep the real fans socially distant.

這些超級盃的假球迷被分散開來,以讓現場真球迷保持社交距離。而在一些其他體育賽場上,人型立牌都聚集在一些電視轉播較集中的區域。

The NFL charged fans $100 for each cardboard cutout at the game. That’s a cool $3 million in revenue to make up for some of the lost ticket and concession sales.

NFL在比賽中向球迷收取每個人型立牌100美元的費用,那是不錯的300萬美元收入,可以彌補一些門票和特許銷售的損失。
