Appearances
The turnout becomes the headline almost immediately, depending on where you look.
Estimates say high hundreds of thousands.
There's a figure out there that says nine hundred and eighty thousand over one million people in the park.
The New York City Fire Department they did estimate that it was over nine hundred and fifty thousand.
Either way, it goes down as the largest concert crowd that Central Park has ever seen.
Crowd is really only one side of it.
The other side
Is that the whole thing is broadcast live on HBO as Garth Live from Central Park.
And in a nineteen ninety seven context, it's it's a big deal because live T V events were rare and when they did happen, they were a massive deal.
People planned around them.
Because you can't catch it later.
There were no clips on TikTok.
You can't go back into your TiVo, mm that was later, or your D VR, that was later.
You had to either record it on your VCR, which nobody could really figure out how to do, or be there live.
HBO had a huge night, including a fifteen point two rating.
Which was a record for them at the time.
Fifteen point two means basically fifteen percent of all people watching television were watching the Garth Brook Special in Central Park.
Now you got two versions of the same moment happening at once.
A packed park in New York.
And a national audience watching from home, both setting records, both massive.
