    “If I’m being generous, that looks like 10 rows of 10 seats across on each side,” reported a tech correspondent Chris O’Brien. “So about a total of 200 people potentially?”

    Chris O’Brien can’t do basic multiplication.

        Oh, two sides! I didn’t understand that. It’s right there “on each side” but that didn’t click for me as meaning this times two. Rereading it now, it’s obvious.

      10 rows x 10 seats per row = 100 seats per side.

      100 seats per side x 2 sides = 200 seats.

      Where is the error?

        As someone else pointed out and I acknowledged, I didn’t read it as two sides of that many seats each. Once I looked again I could see it was said plainly. My bad.
