Talk about ending the season with a bang. First off: Atlanta United FC set a record for season attendance, becoming the first MLS team to surpass 800,000 fans in a season and breaking the record of 752,199 set by the Seattle Sounders in 2015. And with the crowd of 71.874, Atlanta United FC broke its own match attendance record set last month, when 70,245 fans were at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. These numbers helped MLS set an all-time season attendance record, surpassing the 8-million mark for the first time.
