Ohio: cities, venues and capacity
The Ohio picture for an organizer — 655 venues across 49 cities, ranked by what the record can prove rather than by marketing copy.
Ohio Stadium states the largest capacity in the state. The dots show what event67 would bill at that head count, and where the price stops.

Top of the capacity range
Ranked by stated capacity, then by how much the record can prove. Open data rarely publishes a capacity for a convention centre, so a hall may sit below an arena here without being the smaller room.
