Where is football played in front of the most seats?
Average capacity of the grounds a league plays in. Capacity, not attendance — the record holds the former.

Grounds are attached to the match, not the club, so a neutral venue counts where it was used. Capacities under 500 or over 200,000 are treated as bad records and left out.
