The fake audience/cheering on the triathlon is so cringe. It's looping over and over again -- the race will take nearly two hours.

I wish they'd stop talking.

Why are they using tinned audience?

[–] Pilk@aussie.zone 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Literally just for excitement reasons, they need audio for the wide shots and stretches where the crowd is a bit thinner. It does make sense -- nothing wrong with sweetening the broadcast a bit -- but they could use a longer loop!

I remember during covid they used it for the AFL.

To be honest I don’t know what was worse. A bad looping audio crowd with someone shouting something obnoxious that got replayed repeatedly or an empty soulless stadium.

Empty soulless was DEEPLY upsetting!!!
