"World Wrestling Entertainment"
State Farm Arena - Atlanta, GA
Tickets sold: 11,082
Capacity: 11,082
Occupancy: 100%
Ticket price: $20 - $125
USD gross: $513,206
My number: 12,014
Thoughts: About 7% in comps. I double checked my notes on this and there's really not a lot of room for error on my end as 0 tickets remained by the time the map closed for this one and every section I saw open was mostly in full (besides the very edge of the stage limited view sections). Also worth noting in my final count for this one, there were several people in the 2nd level sections not available on the ticket map for this venue so it's possible the comp percentage is a tad higher.

"World Wrestling Entertainment"
Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse - Cleveland, OH
Tickets sold: 9,432
Capacity: 14,278
Occupancy: 66%
Ticket price: $20 - $125
USD gross: $561,928
My number: 10,495
Thoughts: The difference between my number and the paid here would suggest 10% in comps. The last few shows at this venue didn't come close to this number so it wouldn't surprise me if the comp percentage was a tad higher. I'm not sure why the gross for this show is higher than Atlanta despite selling less tickets (but having the same price range) but I saw many higher priced tickets than the high end range of $125 that Pollstar listed.
In case you missed the first Pollstar post with this kind of data (or search for "Pollstar" on the main page). Pollstar receives a lot of data from venues for concerts and other events. When I reached out to Pollstar in the past they mentioned their figures are paid numbers (and wouldn't include comps). "Pollstar, The Voice of Live Entertainment for over 40 years, provides the most up-to-date, relevant and useful data available for the global concert industry, delivering an unmatched archive of live entertainment data, a focus on editorial excellence, and the most powerful metrics of entertainment industry success available anywhere.":
