More than 70,000 fans were in attendance to witness the first round of the NFL draft Thursday night in Philadelphia, according to NFL Network's Rich Eisen.
And it's not just a huge crowd, it's a lively one:
The NFL announced that 156,000 people had signed up to attend the NFL Draft Experience, which extends until the draft finishes Saturday. The league said 48,000 people signed up for the same thing in Chicago a year ago.
