Mercedes-Benz Stadium was host to two MLS record-setting crowds, vs. Toronto FC on October 22 (single-match record, 71,874) and vs. Columbus Crew SC (postseason record, 67,221). Atlanta United also set the record for highest average season attendance with games at both Bobby Dodd Stadium and Mercedes-Benz Stadium this season. An impressive feat that shows Atlanta has an incredibly passionate fan base to build on for years to come at Mercedes-Benz Stadium
