"Representatives of the press (120 seats) are considered in the same way as match personnel and are therefore not counted as part of the total attendance," HC Fribourg-Gottéron's CEO Raphaël Berger tells La Liberté.

Obviously, that is still 434 seats more than the original assumed number of 8,500. The seats were added upon request of HCFG in order to have more space for season ticket holders: "We should indeed be able to sell everything except for what we have decided to keep for the sale on a match-to-match basis."
