I talked with a person in the Bankers Life Fieldhouse box office and she said the seating capacity for the Bad Boy Invitational is 10,000. Does anyone know the seating capacity of the Chili Bowl venue in Tulsa?

I thought it was ~15,000, but could be way off.

I Googled but couldn't find anything. I have never been there, but it seems like I have heard figures similar to what you are stating.

Are you referring to the Chili Bowl? The Bad Boy Invitational went on sale on Oct. 16th.

They say there is 15000 there Saturday of the chili bowl. It is very crowded I believe it, but I bet that includes all the pit pass buyers many of which do not get a seat and watch on the TV's throughout the building. They sell tons of pit passes since the reserved is sold-out.

The turn 3-4 grandstands at the Chili Bowl seat 4550 by my calculations. Along with the front stretch stands, I believe you would have close to 7000 front gate reserved seats. With all of the pit pass holders sitting on the back stretch and other pit seating along with those watching only on video screens, I believe 12-15,000 would be an accurate estimate.
