#1 1950 World Cup Brazil (1,045,246)

Brazil is known as the paradise of football the whole nation lives off football and thrives in football. Football being bigger than life or death, this saying is probably most suited to the people of Brazil.
The FIFA World Cups had a 12-year break due to World War II and resumed again in the year 1950 and Brazil was chosen as the host nation. It was probably the best choice given the South American continent didn’t play any major part during the world wars.
It was, in all true sense, the modern beginning of the FIFA World Cups, even though we had three editions before the edition in Brazil.
Uruguay were crowned champions in Brazil 1950, and the whole tournament saw a total attendance of 1,045,246.
A figure which India beat by a margin of 301,907 heads.
