So, you're wondering how many people tuned in to watch Leo Messi's grand entrance into the MLS? Well, buckle up, because this number is so big, it's practically got a black hole around it.
A Number So Big, It's Out of This World
Let's get straight to the point: 3.5 billion people watched Messi's Inter Miami presentation. Yes, you read that right. That's more people than have ever lived on Earth. If every person on the planet held hands, they probably wouldn't reach halfway around the stadium.
