10 Things You Didn't Know About WWE No Way Out 2000

10. The Attendance Was Remarkably Small

Despite booming popularity amongst wrestling fans and all that monster business the company were doing at the turn of the millennium, the WWF chose to host No Way Out 2000 in the relatively humble confines of the Hartford Civic Center (known as the XL Center today).

The crowd wasn't exactly massive.

12,551 fans bought tickets to see the pay-per-view in person. According to Wikipedia's notes on the venue, it's capable of holding approx 3,000 more than that for basketball. Basically, this means that the WWF didn't sell it out in February 2000, which is rather surprising considering how hot they were at the time.

That 12,551 paid $451,625 at the gate (an average ticket price of just $35) and bought a further $97,000 in merchandise on site. This all sounds remarkably small for a show that took place on what has become known as the 'Road To WrestleMania'.
