Is someone sitting there with a calculator on their phone, tapping out each black or latino face they see in the audience? Must’ve have gotten bored today.
Not each sport is going to attract an equal number of races.
That was never the intention. Specific sports can usually be traced back to specific cultures or nationalities. So what?

You can tell a big difference, between the crowds for NBA basketball, and NHL hockey, just to name two sports which appear to draw differing demographics from one another.

I hope it’s not racist to say I’ve observed that at sporting events..................

No , but there were multitudes of complaints against Chris Everet, one of the US Open commentators, claiming she couldn’t hide her hatred for Serena and other blank women players. (Which is absurd, she is equally critical of all pro players).
In 2020, US Open, most black players wore BLM masks, Naomi Osaka called the US, a “Genocidal country”. Just imagine if USA John Isner, and unabashed Trump supporter, wore a MAGA mask, what do you think would happen, he would be ordered to take it off or don’t play. Commercial after commercial featured people of color, probably 95%. The stadium was loud obnoxious and aggressive against white players when black people were playing. So racism is alive and well………..
